Heavy laminated cover, usual library markings, interior clean & tight, unmarked, slight soiling outer edge of pages. Most women who were of child-bearing age in the early 1970s have heard of the Dalkon Shield. Most women who used it believed it would provide a safe and responsible means of birth control; for some however, the outcome was tragic. Some died; others experienced septic abortions, miscarriages, or chronic PID's. Most lost the ability to have children.... The author provides a comprehensive overview of the manufacturing and marketing of the IUD, and its trail of destruction. It brings to life a story that has been obscured by legal and medical bureaucracy and presents an important lesson about the impact of misinformation on the public.
