BACK COVER #
Written by a husband-wife team, this important book examines the two topics most often discussed but least understood by today's college students--drugs and sex: 70% of the book discusses drugs--giving a complete classification of drugs and their respective physiological and psychological effects. The history, folklore, use and abuse, drug laws, and the different treatment and rehabilitation programs are covered in depth. The rest of the book considers the biological basis of human sexual response, anatomy and physiology, contraception, abortion, venereal disease, pregnancy and child bearing. The factual, straightforward approach cuts through layers of misinformation without moralizing or prejudging drug use and sexual activity.
