care.
A section titled "Our rights as patients," informs
people of their legal rights in a hospital or clinic. A
patient's legal rights include the right to participate
in all decisions involving his or her health care, and
the right to refuse any particular drug or test. This
listing is valuable to men and women alike.

several different angles. Each method is presented
with its effectiveness rate, its possible side effects,
and characteristics of the women it is best suited for.
Along with the facts are comments by users of each
particular method.
One of the highlights of the handbook is the
descriptive photographs, illustrations and graphs
which are found throughout. The images are so vivid
that the reader is able to learn as much from the
graphics as from the text. Another important feature
is that all medical terminology is explained. There is
even a chart which gives the slang names for certain
medical terms.
Our Bodies, Ourselves is an exceptional reference
book which serves the needs of both men and women.
The unique combination of facts and personal experiences
adds a quality that many reference books
lack. A reader can look at this hnnk nnH nnHepcton^
