In recent years, the treatment of male infertility has been revolutionized by advances in assisted reproductive technology. Prepared by an authoritative international panel of experts, this concise and structured account provides a consensus on the most effective and logical approach to the investigation and management of male infertility. The manual focuses attention on three key areas: history taking, clinical assessment of male fertility, and objective criteria for diagnostic categories. This approach complements the areas covered in the companion volume WHO Laboratory Manual for the Examination of Human Semen and Sperm-Cervical Mucus Interaction (CUP, fourth edition, 1999) and significantly expands on the section on male infertility discussed in the previous volume on the infertile couple, WHO Manual for the Standardized Investigation and Diagnosis of the Infertile Couple (CUP, 1993). This new, practical consensus will be an indispensable guide to good clinical management of all forms of male infertility.

Review
"This booklet is an excellent account of the current best practice for investigating male infertility. It is presented in a supremely readable form...I have no hesitation in recommending this as a reference text to anyone involved in offering care for men with infertility or sub-fertility or for anyone taking over the management of this sub-specialty in a Urology unit."

Good,
This review is from: WHO Manual for the Standardized Investigation, Diagnosis and Management of the Infertile Male (Paperback)
There is a great deal of mystery around impotence and its causes and few people have tried to get to the bottom of the problem. This book is one of those that break through the wall of ignorance and present impotence for what it is, a human condition. The book explains the origins of impotence, what causes its development and what are the ways in which it can be threaten. However, if you want a far superior book then read ""Natural Penis Enlargement: New methods of avoiding and curing impotence, premature ejaculation, and erectile dysfunction safely and inexpensively. NEW Secrets that your doctor won't tell you, No Pumps, No Pills and No Gadgets!" by Platinum Millennium, a groundbreaking book about sexual disorders
