Female Cycles

Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

On average, one-quarter of a woman's life between early teens and early fifties is spent menstruating. Her later adult life is shaped by the onset, presence and passing of that time loosely described as menopause. And post-menopause, her female cycles continue too.
Most of us want to behave, during these times, as though nothing were happening to our bodies. But we are affected, not only by physical changes but also by a set of taboos, myths and conditioned responses, often only dimly realised.
Paula Weideger makes common sense out of a mass of medical and social research and places the mystification of menstruation and menopause within an ancient historical and cross-cultural tradition. Female Cycles is a book of practical information which also makes fascinating reading. It assumes that we are interested in knowing how our bodies work; that we are interested in knowing to what extent biology does – or needs to – determine our behaviour. It invites us to 'reclaim menstruation and menopause' and to value the rewards and minimise the discomfort of every stage of our female cycles.
