THE WISDOM
OF MENOPAUSE reviewed by Ariele M. Huff
As a physician, Northrup has seen the battle intimately from both sides: the side of the woman who needs health care and for whom it is not adequate, and the side of the doctor who is trying valiantly to create a new paradigm.

A Still Small Voice is a simple, straightforward guide to discovering,
using, and trusting your intuition in every aspect of your life.
Many of the ideas expressed here are not new, but Bodine’s
clear explanations and personal examples remind us to use what
we know.
Phyllis Curott’s memoir, Book of Shadows,
was a chronicle of her discovery of the Goddess and her eventual
initiation into a Wiccan coven. Despite the fact that something
like a dozen new titles about witchcraft appear on bookstore
shelves every month, this one got noticed in a big way, perhaps
due in part to the author’s professional credentials. Educated
at Yale, Curott was a successful attorney at a prestigious Manhattan
firm when Book of Shadows was published. Lawyer by day,
high priestess by night — talk show hosts formed lines to
ask, "What’s up with that?" As an image, it didn’t
seem very, you know, witchy. Where was the flowing, tie-dyed,
Earth Mother dress? The fingers dripping with silver jewelry,
the Celtic knotwork, the gobs of crystals on cords of woven hemp?
What do you mean, she showed up for her interview wearing Armani
and there wasn’t even a trace of patchouli in the air? Doesn’t
she at least have a black caftan?
Writing The Wisdom of Menopause
was clearly the next logical step for Dr. Christiane Northrup.
Her bestseller Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom
began a process that, even in a time of more open communication
on the topic, was unique in its clarity and honesty.
