| Summary |
"The desire to control fertility has existed in most cultures for thousands of years. This long-standing desire has now largely been fulfilled with the introduction of modern effective contraceptive techniques. The introduction of effective methods of contraception and family planning has been one of the most important fundamental inventions of modern time, providing the potential for reproductive health and gender equality and contributing to demographic advancement. Many methods can be used to avoid an unwanted pregnancy and this textbook describes currently available methods of contraception, their advantages and disadvantages, as well as their applicability. This book, written by European experts within the field of family planning, summarises current opinion on contraceptive methods, sterilisation and abortion and is intended as a modern reference manual to be used by all workers within the field of family planning.
