Upending some of our most cherished beliefs about the maternal breast, Breastfeeding and the Pursuit of Happiness explores the historical, political, and symbolic roots of the sacrosanct advice that "breast is best." Phyllis Rippey rejects the dichotomy of inferior versus best, offering a new framework for valuing and affirming the human power of giving and receiving care.
