COVER: MISCARRIAGES. As many as 1 in 3 pregnancies fails. Doctores are just beginning to undserstand why. Cover: Photo by Ann Rhoney.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
THE MYSTERY OF MISCARRIAGE: It is one of the most common phenomena in medicine, yet one of the least understood. Now the women who suffer the physical trauma and emotional devastation of miscarriage are finding help at the frontiers of science. While there are still more questions than answers, medical researchers are finally pinpointing some causes--anatomical and hormonal abnormalities, blood-clotting defects, bacterial infections, environmental hazards --and prescribing successful remedies, even for chronic miscarriers. Society: Page 46.

KING'S GAMBIT: Jordan's King Hussein threw the Mideast peace process into disarray last week. Renouncing claims to the occupied West Bank, he left the fate of 850,000 Palestinians to the PLO. The move strengthened Israeli and Arab hard-liners and left a political vacuum that will be hard to fill. International: Page 30.

AT FAULT: MAN OR MACHINE? AL Navy report that leaked to the press early last week blamed human error by the crew of the USS Vincennes for the accidental downing of an Iranian airliner on July 3, in which 290 civilians died. The report said the tragedy occurred when crewmen misread electronic data produced by their Aegis air-defense system. But questions persisted about the reliability of the high-tech Aegis. National Affairs: Page 18.

GRAY MARKET: The American Association of Retired Persons is not just one of the nation's biggest and most powerful lobby groups. It is also an enormous money machine that makes more from its business enterprises than from dues. Yet it holds tightly to nonprofit status. Business competitors, the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service would like to see the organization pay taxes. Business: Page 38.

HOLY UPROAR: Against a backdrop of threatened boycotts by members of the religious right, Martin Scorsese's controversial film, "The Last Temptation of Christ," opens in New York this week. The Arts: Page 56.
