3.0 out of 5 stars
Still good, but in bad need of updating,
By Paladin_Cody (Cody, WY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Contraceptive Technology (Paperback)
Contraceptive Technology is perhaps the best book available for understanding and using contraception. It should be in the office of every gynecologist, family physician and nurse practitioner and family planning clinic. The book explains complicated concepts in accurate, but easy to understand language.But it has not been updated since 1998 and it is now somewhat out-of-date. Most of the information in the book is still solid, but since publication, new technologies and understandings have occurred and these new data make it imperative that a new edition be issued before this book can maintain its role as the "bible" on reproductive health and technology.

"Contraceptive Technology" review,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
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.

A "must-have" for those caring for & prescribing for women.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
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.
