This work is composed of a series of self-contained pieces, and covers topics like gender and disease, including the sexual differences in susceptibility to diseases, sex-linked genetic disorders and so on. There is a piece on the institutional attitudes to female patients, pieces on the dangers of sexual activity, medical attitudes to the womb, breast cancer and how women deal with their fertility when they don't want to become pregnant, and how they are treated by the medical profession when they do have children. Health care will be the political issue of the 21st century. Germaine Greer asks what people want from technology.
