This is a book that I would use to help students think critically about women's health needs. The authors capture the complexity surrounding women and pharmaceuticals and make a cogent argument for why Canadians need to think carefully about what we thought we already knew. They suggest that we need to reconsider previous assumptions about what is best for women, what is best for public health policy, and who is best suited to make these determinations. I will buy a copy for myself, my mother, and my daughter." - Peggy J. Kleinplatz, Faculty of Medicine, University of Ottawa
In recent years, heated debate has surrounded the pharmaceutical industry and how it has gained unprecedented control over the evaluation, regulation, and promotion of its own products. As a result, drugs are produced, regulated, marketed, and used in ways that infiltrate many aspects of everyday life. The nature and extent of this infiltration, and how this has special meaning for women, are at the core of The Push to Prescribe. This is an essential resource for a variety of courses in Health Sciences, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacology, Public Policy, Public Health, Health Policy, Women's Studies, Women's Health, as well as many Social Science courses in areas like Sociology and Political Science. It will also be of interest to a general audience, health professional organizations, government health associations, and consumer and women's groups.
