Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Marrs, the head of the Institute for Fertility Research in California and editor of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (Blackwell Science, 1993), offers an up-to-date, no-nonsense look at infertility. Enhanced by detailed illustrations, his text reviews both causes and treatment. Marrs does not gloss over the pitfalls of treatment and the likelihood of a cure. In outlining the avenues to take, he discusses assisted reproductive technologies, including current embryology lab techniques. Thankfully, he does not limit his discussion of the emerging field of reproductive immunology to antiphospholipid antibodies, which is just one immune disorder, but broadly considers immunological problems, a topic not discussed in other infertility books. Emotional and financial issues are given equal weight (the unique contribution of coauthor and former patient Lisa Friedman Bloch). Handy glossaries are found at the end of each chapter, and vital resources (including infertility and adoption groups) are also listed. A necessary primer for any couple faced with infertility, this is essential for public libraries. (Index not seen).
Lisa A. Errico-Cox, Nassau Community Coll. Lib., Garden City, N.Y.
