Book Description:

"Joy Sorman's Life Sciences takes an overtly political premise--the medical establishment's inability or perhaps refusal to take seriously the physical struggles of women--and transforms it into a surreal and knife-deep work of fiction that asks: What pain can we abide, and what pain must we fight back against, even if the fight hurts more than the disease itself?"
--Lena Dunham, The New York Times Book Review
