This edition highlights interesting perspectives on STIs as well as cultural impacts on human development and childbirth. Among the several noteworthy aspects are the study questions following each chapter which span many taxonomical levels ranging from simple remembering to critical thinking."" - Kathleen E Salmeron, PhD(University of Kentucky College of Medicine)
