"A Woman's Right to Know: How Women's Health Became a Political Pawn - and the Surprising Alliances Working to Reclaim It" by Carol Roye

www.carolroye.com/promo

When women's health wasn't a political issue…
The surprising history every woman deserves to know.

Women's health has long been seen as a divisive social issue. But behind inflammatory news headlines is an untold story that every man and woman is entitled to know. This factual and eye-opening story recounts how women’s health devolved from being a medical issue, supported even by religious groups, to a divisive political debate.

Exposing a chain of historic events, author Carol Roye reveals how only recently groups such as the Religious Right organized against abortion rights, using it as an influential political tool. Roye, an academic, longtime nurse practitioner and mother of six, also dispels many of the inaccurate, political arguments surrounding abortion and instead shines a light on the real concern at hand – public health.

Welcome to the forums, and thanks for making this excellent ebook available. I've made a good beginning to the ebook, and am impressed with the information provided and the high quality formatting and presentation.

I only have a couple of minor niggles:

- Although you have some endnotes and a lot of references to the evidence in the literature I had to leave the text and go to the extensive bibliography if I wanted to explore the references. I'd prefer that endnotes were provided to go directly from the text to the references and back.
- And I do hope that the text will be provided in ePub format in due course. Sooner or later I'm going to going to send the ebook from my Kindle to calibre and export it back to my Sony, my preferred ereader.

Karma on it's way.
