Reproductive Health: Women and Men's Shared Responsibility

Reproductive Health: Women and Men's Shared Responsibility is a much needed reference for both leaders and students in community health. The author's basic premise, that reproductive health must be addressed in an individual, community, and global context, is reflected in this integrated orientation to reproductive health that befits the needs of students of the twenty first century. It offers a cutting-edge approach in its presentation of information about reproductive health, complete with recognition of the role of men, human rights, social justice, global health, infertility, environmental threats, gender violence, and more.
This text approaches women's and men's health in a balanced, interactive approach by presenting case studies that link program and policy issues to practical experiences. This text also addresses: global action and advocacy, sexuality, family decisions, factors undermining reproductive health, and controversial contemporary issues.
