Title: a collection of anecdotes with no scientific basis
Review: Recently I've been doing research on oral contraceptives and their hormonal basis and I picked up this book because I thought it might have something to tell me about how the pill worked. Of course the book has no such thing. The words "estriadol" and "progestin" the two main components of the pill are not even in the index. The book is a collection of anectodal complaints from women about their experiences with the pill without any basis in science or medicine. Seamen doesn't even talk about how the side effects reported could have been caused by the pill, she simply reports them as fact. There are interviews with laypeople, doctors, and psychologists but there are absolutely no references located in this book from peer reviewed scientific journals. She does describe some scientific studies but completely skews the results. Basically this book is unscientific, sensationalistic, and poorly written.
