"In 1994 the United Nations International Conference on Population and Development (held in Cairo, Egypt) emphasized sexual and reproductive health services as central to sustainable development, and, additionally, developed a much expanded understanding of the issues. Human rights (and the right to good sexual and health services) came to the forefront, subsuming the notion that coercive measures to contain the population bomb could be justified. This volume presents current global thinking on physiology, general epidemiology, demography, the core elements of care, reproductive cancers, and some ethical and other general aspects."--
