A. to Z. of Women's Health (Oxford Paperback Reference) - Softcover

Written especially for women, this practical handbook gives straightforward answers to questions about normal physical development and functioning, and about the medical and psychological problems that women are likely to encounter in their own lives and in the lives they share with their children and partners. In 350 main entries, many of them illustrated, the reader will find illuminating discussions of sexuality, contraception, childbirth and motherhood, diet, and hygiene, as well as clear definitions of many important medical and technical terms. "Sensible and authorititative....The dictionary style makes reference and cross-reference simple. It is intended for the lay public and can confidently be recommended to patients of all ages."--Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
