Physician, research scientist, endocrinologist, Professor Beaulieu is internationally renowned for his development of RU-486, the French abortion pill that stunned the world with its simplicity and its implications. He tells how the drug works, how he created it and what the process could mean for women the world over. World opinion is starkly divided on Beaulieu's discovery. On one side are those who argue that RU-486 is only a more efficient manner of killing - "chemical warfare on the unborn". On the other side are those who comment the safety and ease of RU-486, hailing it not only as a drug that can painlessly put an end to unwanted pregnancies, but as a medical breakthrough that may even have positive ramifications in the treatment of breast cancer and AIDS. Together with American reporter Mort Rosenblum, Beaulieu recounts the drama of scientific discovery, takes on the mortal questions, and makes a reasoned argument for his views. Dr Beaulieu wrote 11 academic books on hormonal studies. Mort Rosenblum also wrote "Coups and Earthquakes", "Mission to Civilize", "Squandering Eden", "Back Home" and "Moments in Revolution"
