Control?: A Couple's Guide to Contraception - Paperback

by William R. Cutrer M. D. (Author), Sandra L. Glahn Ph. D. (Author)

Control? A Couple's Guide to Contraception equips couples to make fully informed decisions about the complex and personal issues surrounding the topic of family building. Balancing between the extremes of "anything goes" and "no contraception at all," this book guides readers who wish to take a high view of life in some of their most intimate decisions. Written in a candid, engaging style by a male obstetrician/gynecologist and a female journalist/educator, both of them theologians, this easy-to-read book is packed with medical information and addresses multiple ethical considerations. In this re-release of the authors' 2005 guide, you'll learn from real-life couples facing a variety of concerns and obtain faith-based wisdom for your choices. Each chapter ends with questions to help partners communicate on key issues.
