Inhaltsangabe

This book is one of the original books in the "Your Questions Answered (YQA)" series. It serves as a primary source of information about reversible methods of contraception. Written in an informal - and yet highly informative - question-and-answer style, it represents a dialogue between general practitioner (asking the questions) and reproductive health specialist (providing the answers). As for all YQAs, the main aim of the book is to give practical guidance to busy clinicians when they are faced with patients who wants help with a health problem - for this book, the questions pertain to choosing and using the best means of controlling fertility. Most chapters conclude with questions frequently asked by patient - the answers to which can be very difficult for the unprepared and busy clinician to improvise 'on the spot' in the surgery.

Críticas

"Provides a wealth of information...graphically illustrates the need for practitioners to be thoroughly knowledgeable." Toni Belfield, Director of Information, Family Planning Association, September 2003 reading and a useful ready reference for all practitioners in the contraceptive field. The commonly asked [user] questions section is useful in direct client counselling but also in preparing written information. A most welcome support to clinicians in both primary and secondary care." Alison Bigrigg, President, Faculty of Family Planning & Reproductive Health Care, Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists, October 2003 can be a potentially tricky area with many pitfalls and this is the only book that I have ever come across that seems to answer any burning questions. It is formatted in the familiar Your Questions Answered series and is a seemingly comprehensive look at contraception. It is ideal for primary care but secondary care specialists such as gynaecologists could also enjoy reading this book. As well as being a superb reference text, it is top class and is written in such a relaxed style that it is easy to just open up and read through a few sections. The questions that patients are likely to ask -with model answers are also most useful. Many GP registrars often finding contraception, a difficult subject to come to terms with and this book I would suggest is essential reading. I would also suggest that is a core element to any practice library. " Dr Harry Brown (GP), Medix UK, February 2004
