Abstract

Globally, there is a shortage of family planning services. This shortage is associated with unacceptably high rates of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality that are mostly preventable. The current situation does not comply with the United Nations Millennium Declaration, signed in September 2000. Family planning needs to be widely available and easily accessible. In addition, it is vital that research intensifies to further cover the safety, effectiveness, affordability, and acceptability of family planning methods and accessibility to family planning services. This book is designed as an additional contribution to the family planning spectrum. It covers some aspects of family planning and deals with a number of issues that pertain to reproductive health.

Abstract

Pauvreté généralisée causée par la surpopulation, familles nombreuses et nécessiteuses, croissance démographique irrépressible, absence, avant les politiques de Mao, de tout contrôle des naissances ... les préjugés au sujet de la Chine ont la vie dure. Ce livre, d'entrée de jeu, attaque les idées reçues sur la population chinoise, idées pour la plupart héritées des vieilles thèses malthusiennes datant du début du xixe siècle. Surpeuplement, misère, fécondité, mariage ... tout est ici remis en question. Les auteurs abordent le phénomène de la population chinoise sur plusieurs fronts, réussissant ainsi à en donner une vision globale. Ils mettent dans une nouvelle lumière l'explosion démographique des années 1960-1975, où la population passa de 600 millions à près de 850 millions, puis les débuts du contrôle des naissances jusqu'à la politique de l'enfant unique en vigueur depuis 1985. Ils renouvellent ainsi notre compréhension non seulement de la démographie de la Chine, mais aussi de son histoire, de sa société et de son économie. Et comprendre la Chine aujourd'hui, c'est mieux comprendre le monde que nous habitons.

Abstract

"A Review of the HHS Family Planning Program provides a broad evaluation of the Title X family planning program since its establishment in 1970. The program successfully provides family planning services to its target audience of low-income individuals, but there is room for improvement. While the program's core goals are apparent, a secondary set of changing priorities has emerged without a clear, evidence-based strategic process. Also, funding for the program has increased in actual dollars, but has not kept pace with inflation or increased costs. Several aspects of the program's structure could be improved to increase the ability of Title X to meet the needs of its target population. At the same time, the extent to which the program meets those needs cannot be assessed without a greater capacity for long-term data collection. A Review of the HHS Family Planning Program recommends several specific steps to enhance the management and improve the quality of the program, as well as to demonstrate its direct contribution to important end results, such as reducing rates of unintended pregnancy, cervical cancer, and infertility. The book will guide the Office of Family Planning toward improving the effectiveness of the program. Other parties who will find the research and recommendations valuable include programs receiving Title X funding from the Office of Family Planning, policy makers, researchers, and professional organizations."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

Reproductive medicine is the most dynamic area within obstetrics and gynecology and, arguably, the most complicated. An explosion of scientific understanding and technological capabilities - particularly in contraception, infertility and menopause - has transformed the specialty into a high-profile subject that touches upon endocrinology, embryology, andrology, surgery, social science, and practical law and ethics. The Oxford American Handbook of Reproductive Medicine provides a practical overview of the reproductive system and a systematic approach to its disorders, covering diagnosis, assess

Abstract

This book is projected as a preliminary manuscript in Infectious Disease. It is undertaken to cover the foremost basic features of the articles. Infectious Disease and analogous phenomenon have been one of the main imperative postwar accomplishments in the world. The book expects to provide its reader, who does not make believe to be a proficient mathematician, an extensive preamble to the field of infectious disease. It may immeasurably assist the Scientists and Research Scholars for continuing their investigate workings on this discipline. Numerous productive and precise illustrated descriptions with a number of analyses have been included. The book offers a smooth and continuing evolution from the principally disease oriented lessons to a logical advance, providing the researchers with a compact groundwork for upcoming studies in this subject.
