Thicker Than Water - Elizabeth M. Miller - Bog

Using an anthropologist's holistic approach, Thicker Than Water traces the evolution of iron metabolism from the beginnings of the Earth to current human populations, focusing on the benefits and dangers of iron to women and their reproduction. Looking at sexism, racism, and poverty, this work demonstrates the intricate connections between the body and society, showing how inequalities in iron deficiency are created amongst women of the world.
