"While offering valuable testimony about a thorny subject,
this book feels like a soft shoulder and a warm hug. It's balm
for anyone who has ever struggled with this nearly-taboo subject."
-- "New Directions for Women" - New York - 1989
This timely volume addresses a key question of our time; population
control means not having children. Being not bodies alone, we
need cultural--philosophical and social--underpinnings to mentally
and emotionally support the physical act of not reproducing. The
subjects of "Childlessness Transformed" have achieved
this for themselves and may be clearing the way for many more
of us.
-- Sierra Club Newsletter "Bonanza" Sacramento, CA
- 1989
Written ahead of its time in 1989, this book addresses a subject
that has finally become somewhat less taboo.
