"A guide to the details of virtually all contraceptives"

This small paperback is a rich guide to the details of virtually all contraceptive choices available to Americans. This is Planned Parenthood's third book that focuses on health and sexuality issues. Despite the organization's obvious support of contraception, the material is presented with regard to individual religious or moral beliefs. Essentially, each type of birth control is presented with a listing of the pros and cons. One particularly helpful chapter addresses the question of how to choose the right contraception for yourself. This would be a good guide for anyone choosing birth control for the first time or considering a new method.From the L.A. Times Book Review
