Product Description
The much-discussed spread of AIDS has increased awareness of sexually transmitted diseases. But awareness of AIDS is sometimes at the expense of less well-known but increasingly important conditions. This book gives practical information and advice to general readers. The first section answers common questions about sexually transmitted diseases and there are chapters on each of the major conditions including gonorrhea, syphilis, AIDS, hepatitis, chlamydia, herpes and genital warts. There is also a section on minor conditions. The book aims to de-stigmatize sexually transmitted diseases and the author argues that social responsibility is a necessary adjunct to sexual liberation. This is a sequel to the author's "Herpes, Aids and Other Sexually Transmitted Diseases". It is a useful book for all sexually active people.
