First published in 1981, this is a straightforward guide to infertility and its treatment. The author is a physician who developed the technique for vasectomy reversal and performed the first successful testicle and ovary transplants. The text and illustrations provide information on the normal functioning of the male and female reproductive systems, diagnostic tests for men and women, conventional treatments (including drugs, surgery and behaviour modification), and simple treatments for problems such as undiagnosed physical difficulties and easily-altered personal habits. There is also coverage of sexual positions and techniques designed to enhance the chances of pregnancy, anxiety and its effects of fertility, and birth control and sterilization.
