This is in the April 09 issue of Atlantic magazine:
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200904/case-against-breastfeeding

Here's the intro:
In certain overachieving circles, breast-feeding is no longer a choice-it's 
a no-exceptions requirement, the ultimate badge of responsible parenting. 
Yet the actual health benefits of breast-feeding are surprisingly thin, far 
thinner than most popular literature indicates. Is breast-feeding right for 
every family? Or is it this generation's vacuum cleaner-an instrument of 
misery that mostly just keeps women down?
