'Simply outstanding! This multi-authored book chronicles the remarkable sea change in abortion and contraception education that has occurred in the US - and around the world. Thoroughly referenced, and illustrated with photos, graphs, and flow charts, the book provides a roadmap for policymakers, educators, and clinicians. After half a century in the family planning field, I believe that no comparable text exists. This book describes pragmatic, proven paths to improving women's reproductive health through education. It will prove essential for leaders at the local hospital, state, and national level.' David A. Grimes, MD, Clinical Professor, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of North Carolina School of Medicine 'Landy and colleagues provide a rare comprehensive description and evaluation of their evidence- and system-based Reproductive Health educational programs. Their truly international Family Planning and Reproductive Health program has demonstrated sustainable public health benefits for girls and women. Their book could be carefully read and used as a roadmap and model by anyone interested in engagement in a major project in the health or medical education space.' Timothy Johnson, MD, Professor, Obstetrics & Gynecology, University of Michigan
