"A limited knowledge or lack of it, concerning the reproduction, contraception, family planning and sex can have a significant impact upon the social, family and personal growth and development of an individual. The reproduction, contraception and sex education are among the major issues in everyone's life but unfortunately, our society does not permit open discussion on them. Sex problems are the burning questions in several families and may be a dominant cause of separation and/or divorce. This book is an initiative to cover all the queries and problems of an individual pertaining to reproduction, contraception, family planning and sex. It is essentially an attempt to make young India aware of certain facts regarding these issues.<P>The book is divided into four sections Reproduction, Contraception, Family Planning and Sex.
