1) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. I am surprised he did not discuss Anal Rape and the stress on women´s body and mind. He is obviously an expert on such subject matter. Check out the May 2005 edition of The Nation. It´s always easier for the religious right to preach about the belief being righteous than act on it.¤ 2) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. I read this book years ago while conducting background research on W. David Hager. Typical right wing fundie nonsense, and useless stuff. But I´m absolutely appalled at the allegations his ex-wife (and coauthor of this book) made about his abuse of her during their 32-year marrage, including accusations of forced sodomy while she was taking medication for a sleep disorder. The author, W. David Hager, is on an FDA advisory panel for reproductive health drugs, and was one of the few opponents of morning-after contraception being made available without a prescription. So it galls me to discover that this ´expert´ on women´s health, a self-touted ´advocate for women´, is a practitioner of repeated anal rape of his wife during the last seven years of their marriage.¤ 3) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. No, I didn´t read the book. I read The Nation article about Hager´s first wife. Seems she didn´t like being forcefully sodomized by this jerk. More hypocrisy from the Christian Right!¤ 4) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. I find it sad that blind political agenda taints the review of this book. I also think it is poor judgment to allow reviewers to claim they know the prescribing habits of the author.
If you believe that our health has anything to do with our mindset/attitude, you will find this book interesting.
I did.
¤ 5) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. Because George Bush has just announced his plan to select Dr. W. David Hager to head up the Food and Drug Administration´s (FDA) Reproductive Health Drugs Advisory Committee, I felt impelled to read his books. Hager´s track record of using religious beliefs to guide his medical decision-making makes him a dangerous and inappropriate candidate to serve as chair of the above-mentioned committee. It seems that Hager´s solution to stress is for women to quit work, to resume their "natural" rhythms as "home economists." Shades of a Handmaid´s Tale and other dystopian visions of theocratic societies that want to put women back in their "place." Dr. Hager is a practicing OB/GYN who refuses to prescribe contraceptives to unmarried women. Hager also appears to have endorsed the medically inaccurate assertion that the common birth control pill is an abortifacient. These are scary, scary times.¤ 6) Paperback Book Stress and the Womans Body by Revell. A resource for helping women recognize and cope with the effects of anxiety and stress in their lives.¤ Page Updated: Robert N. Goolsby, 5-Dec-2008, 08007566579780800756659, 570-8
