Despite the increased attention in the media to women's health, hormone connections are not being routinely evaluated and as a result, critical information is still being missed. Women are suffering needlessly, often being given costly medications that cause side-effects. In this revised and updated edition, Dr. Vliet continues her crusade to debunk the myths and misinformation on women's health, and to inform readers about premature menopause, increasing hormone problems in young women, new natural hormone options, over-the-counter herbs and supplements, "Syndrome W": perimenopausal weight gain and insulin resistance, progesterone the pregnancy hormone, and the relationships between hormones and diseases.
Why don't most popular diet plans work for post-menopausal women; and if they do, why do women have to work at it three times as hard and four times as long to lose half the weight a man does? Dr Elizabeth Lee Vliet answers the questions in a groundbreaking book that will be a godsend to every woman who has tried and failed to stop the dreaded 'inevitable' weight gain that comes with mid-life. In this book Dr Vliet explains how and why hormone imbalances are the major factor in the mid-life woman's inability to lose weight and how balanced hormonal production combined with exercise and a proper diet can lead to a breakthrough in mid-life fitness, health and well-being.

The Reconstruction of Southern Debtors
Elizabeth Lee Thompson
University of Georgia Press
2004

Based on a careful empirical study of nearly four thousand cases filed in three southern federal districts, this book focuses on how the Bankruptcy Act of 1867 helped shape the course and outcome of Reconstruction. Although passed by a Republican-dominated Congress that was commonly viewed as punitive toward the post-Civil War South, the Bankruptcy Act was a great benefit to southerners. In this first study of the operation of the 1867 Act, Elizabeth Lee Thompson challenges previous works, which maintain that nineteenth-century southerners uniformly opposed federal bankruptcy laws as threatening extensions of federal power. To the contrary, Thompson finds that southerners, faced with the war’s devastation, were more likely to file for bankruptcy than debtors in other parts of the country. The Act thus was the major piece of federal economic legislation that benefited southerners during Reconstruction.Thompson determines that because the vast majority of the Bankruptcy Act’s southern beneficiaries were propertied white men, the legislation served to stabilize and entrench the postwar economic—and thus social and political—power of the sector that included those who were recently leading secessionists and Confederates. Their participation in a federal process, through federal tribunals, during an era of intense white southern opposition to policies emanating from Washington reveals the complex interaction of states' rights ideology and self-interest. However, Thompson shows, white southerners ultimately sacrificed neither in relation to the Bankruptcy Act. After thousands had received economic relief through the statute and the number of filings had slowed to a trickle, southern congressmen supported the Act’s repeal in 1878.
