About this Item

8vo 204pp + Index. stated first edition. from front flap: "As a dedicated Roman Catholic, as a leading gynecologist notable in the field of human reproduction, and as a major contributor to the development of the oral contraceptive pill, John Rock is uniquely qualified to speak on this highly charged subject. After defining the forces obstructing agreement, and explaining how they can be redirected, he offers a creative synthesis of the three vital aspects of the problem: doctrinal, political, and medical. Clearing the air of the stereotypes held on all sides, he shows that Catholics and non-Catholics are much closer than many suppose in accepting the principles of family planning." #02022.
