5.0 out of 5 stars "Contraceptive Technology" review, December 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Contraceptive Technology (Paperback)

I have checked this book out of the Seattle Public Library so many times that I'm considering buying it for my personal reference library. I have recommended this book to many men and women. Excellent information (and things you did not expect to read) about differernt methods of birth control. If you want to be informed and educated about oral contraceptives, abortion and gynecology then you will find this book helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars A "must-have" for those caring for & prescribing for women., July 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Contraceptive Technology (17th Ed) (Paperback)

This is my second purchase of this excellent, comprehensive book. (It's updated periodically). It's an essential reference, a practical guide, a one-stop shopping not just for contraception but for a general approach to appropriate medical care for women. I highly recommend it. Pepi Granat, M.D.
