Boston MA U.S.A.: New England Free Press 1972. First Edition Later Printing . Soft cover. Very Good. Precursor to the book of the same name with a slightly different subtitle that would become a cornerstone of the second-wave feminist movement of the 1970s breaking all kinds of barriers that stood in the way of women taking control of their own bodies & health. Born at a 1969 workshop entitled "Women and Their Bodies" it was first published by the Boston Women's Health Course Collective & printed by the New England Free Press in that same city in 1971. We believe that this is the Second Printing described as "New Printing of Women & Their Bodies" on the front cover described by the editors as having been "rushed to print with no revisions since the first printing sold out so quickly." In a brief editorial note on the Table of Contents page they outline revisions they plan to make in the upcoming 3rd printing & reach out to readers for additional suggestions of what they would like to see included. On the verso of this page however print runs & dates through the 8th printing in July 1972 are listed so this may be that 8th printing retaining the 2nd printing notice Unlike the softcover book in stiff white wrappers decorated in color that is so familiar to all women over the past five decades this early edition was still on newsprint in black & white with a cover price of $.35. It consists of 3 sections each about 44 pages stapled together on the left in 136 pages a two-page letter from the editors outlining their plans for turning this "course" into a book to be published by Simon & Schuster in the interest of using the publisher's massive distribution network to get it into the hands of as many women as possible far more than the Collective could manage. It became a reality in 1973. The book remains a critical cornerstone in the movement for women's rights & has never been out of print. Extremely scarce in this printing with only 2 copies available in the trade & 2 held by libraries in Germany & the Netherlands as of this writing Nov. 2023. Off-white wrappers show tanning around all edges. Only flaw is a torn triangular section to top edge of front cover 1.25" x 1.25" x .75" with tiny .25" vertical tear to same area on following 2 pages & a few microscopic tears/nicks to same edge.

New York: Simon & Schuster 1973. First commercial and first expanded edition early paperback issue. Illustrations. 276pp. 4to. Publisher's pictorial stiff wrappers creases and wear. First commercial and first expanded edition early paperback issue. Illustrations. 276pp. 4to. "In May of 1969 as the women's movement was gaining momentum and influence in the Boston area and elsewhere around the country a group of women met during a 'female liberation conference' at Emmanuel College. In a workshop on 'Women and Their Bodies' they shared their experiences with doctors and their frustration at how little they knew about how their bodies worked. The discussions were so provocative and fulfilling that they formed the Doctor's Group the forerunner to the Boston Women's Health Book Collective to find out more about their bodies their lives their sexuality and relationships and to talk with each other about what they learned. They decided to put their knowledge into an accessible format that could be shared and would serve as a model for women to learn about themselves communicate their findings with doctors and challenge the medical establishment to change and improve the care that women receive. In 1970 they worked with the New England Free Press to publish a 193-page course book on stapled newsprint entitled "Women and Their Bodies." The book was revolutionary for its frank talk about sexuality and abortion which was then illegal. The cost: 75 cents. In 1971 they changed the title to 'Our Bodies Our Selves' to emphasize women taking full ownership of their bodies . In 1972 after strenuous debate the group of founding authors decided to publish with a mainstream publisher in order to reach a wider audience. They formally incorporated as the Boston Women's Health Book Collective and negotiated a contract with Simon & Schuster that included a 70 percent clinic discount for low-income women and provision for a U.S. Spanish translation. The first commercial expanded edition of "Our Bodies Ourselves" was published in 1973" https://www.ourbodiesourselves.org/our-story/. <br/><br/> Simon & Schuster paperback
