Description: Ru 486 : Misconceptions, Myths & Morals, Paperback by Klein, Renate, Phd.; Raymond, Janice G.; Dumble, Lynette J., ISBN 1742198406, ISBN-13 9781742198408, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US A classic text for health activists and feminists interested in the complexities of how drugs are developed, marketed, and sold to women around the world, this book reviews the unusual history of the French abortion pill RU-486. Critical of the positive claims made for RU-486, it argues that its promotion is filled with myths and misconceptions. Scrutinizing the science and politics behind RU-486, this account examines how the pill benefits the medical profession, drug companies, and government health economies and offers no advantage to women. Topics include the safety and effectiveness of RU-486, whether or not RU-486 privatizes and de-medicalizes abortion, and the dangerous effects of prostaglandins. This updated edition includes a new introduction.
