Description
Contraception Today is the definitive introductory guide to contraceptive advice. The eighth edition of this bestselling pocketbook summarizes all available methods of contraception and the various factors to be considered in using them. This is a practical guide to the products available, including those newly launched for the market. The easy-to-read format includes bulleted text and color summary boxes that present information at a glance. It is the ideal reference for general practitioners and practice nurses who are particularly well placed to offer contraceptive advice due to their knowledge of the patient's health and circumstances.

Praise for Previous Editions:"This text offers largely evidence-based information on the subject of contraception and also practical clinical advice, based on the lifetime experience of the author... I would recommend this compact text to all healthcare professionals involved in the practice of reproductive and sexual health."
