Summary: At Any Cost is a comprehensive view of damage from an IUD
Comment: Mintz' book (1985) provides a comprehensive view of the behind the scenes deceitful activities of a pharmaceutical cooporate entity. It also describes how this company blantaly marketed a damaging contraceptive (IUD) in the 1970's to over 4 million women wolrd wide. Although it was written more than 10 years ago, it provides a salient history of this device and its horrific damage. Women worldwide lost their fertility and in some cases they lost their fetus' and or their lives. Mintz' book delves deeply into the nitty gritty of the nastiness of the marketing of this device. He is to be commended for his journalistic and investigative skills. A good and intriguing read.
