In Quest for Conception, Marcia C. Inhorn portrays the poignant struggles of poor, urban Egyptian women and their attempts to overcome infertility. The author draws upon fifteen months of fieldwork in urban Egypt to present moving stories of infertile Muslim women whose tumultuous medical pilgrimages have yet to produce the desired pregnancies. Inhorn examines the devastating impact of infertility on the lives of these women, who are threatened with divorce by their husbands, harassed by their husbands' families, and ostracized by neighbors.
The eleventh monograph and meeting of the Foundation on "Hormon al Control of the Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Gonadal Axis" was held in October 1983 at the Weizmann Institute of Science. This monograph honors the memory of Professor Hans R. Lindner, a productive and innovative scientist greatly respected and admired by his col leagues. When addressing the opening session I remarked that my impres sion of the Weizmann Institute was one or two large buildings hous ing the various departments. This was my first visit to Israel and I was overwhelmed by the beautiful semi-tropical gardens of the in stitute, in a setting of shrubs and trees, orange groves and flow ers. Sited among this seventy-five acres are over fifty buildings and residential areas for the staff and visiting scientists. I saw pictures of this area when Dr. Chaim Weizmann founded in 1934, the Daniel Sieff Research Institute, the forerunner of the Weizmann In stitute. The site was sand dunes without a blade of grass. That the desert shall bloom is illustrative of the progress made in Is rael. The topics of the monograph are grouped into twelve sections.
