520 1  "In this account of the abuses of indigenous Caribbean 
       people and African slaves, Schiebinger describes how slave
       women brewed the "peacock flower" into an abortifacient to
       ensure that they would bear no children into oppression. 
       Yet, impeded by trade winds of prevailing opinion, 
       knowledge of West Indian abortifacients never flowed into 
       Europe. A rich history of discovery and loss, Plants and 
       Empire explores the movement, triumph, and extinction of 
       knowledge in the course of encounters between Europeans 
       and the Caribbean population."--BOOK JACKET.
