(MOLALLA, Ore.) - To The Editor of Time Magazine:

The Pill at 50: Sex, Freedom and Paradox by Nancy Gibbs of Time Magazine is one of the most outstanding articles TIME ever printed.

Nancy Gibbs' article and book will become a best seller for women to understand, appreciate and enjoy their God given sexuality.

I knew Dr. Gregory Pincus, the inventor, when he visited the Puerto Rican clinics in the 1950's.

It was unbelievable ignorance for Harvard not to have tenured him. My faculty colleague Dr. Paige Besh at Ohio State University gave the contraception lectures.

He would enter the lecture room screaming "What do you call couples who don't use the PILL? PARENTS!!" He got their attention. Many thanks to Dr.'s Pincus and Rock.

Dr. Phillip Leveque, Doctor of Pharmacology

Thank you for the article. A few other excellent resources for women are: "Women Who Run with the Wolves" by Clarissa Estes, Ph.D., "A Woman's Worth" by Marianne Williamson and "Promiscuities: The Secret Struggle for Womanhood" by Naomi Wolf
