American gynecologist and surgeon Charles B. Penrose wrote this work in an attempt to deliver the best teaching of modern gynecology, not hampered by old-fashioned theories or methods of treatment. He has recommended one treatment plan for each disease, hoping to avoid complicating things for the student or the physician who consults the book for practical advice. This is a well-structured work in which Penrose has covered all the necessary subjects related to women's health. He included topics such as common causes of diseases in women, methods of examination, diseases of external genitals, diseases of the vagina, diseases of the body of the uterus, diseases of the ovaries, menstrual disorders, and techniques used in gynecological surgeries, etc. He focused on presenting accurate, practical knowledge, leaving the general facts related to anatomy, physiology, and pathology that are easily discoverable in the textbooks on these subjects.

First published in 1997, this volume explores how we live in a society which is developing beyond human experience and comprehension – fast. Advances in technology and medicine are profoundly affecting the manner of human living from the beginning through to the end of life. These advances present exciting and demanding challenges to law-makers, policy-makers and healthcare providers, who make decisions about genetics, human reproduction, competence, medical treatment priorities and dying. They also compel us to pay attention to human rights. This international collection of essays combines the thoughts and ideas of women scholars writing about these complex developments and aims at provoking debate and dissension as well as an opportunity for reflection. The writers explore a range of common themes in different areas and provide a coherent framework for law and policy-making, to serve as a foundation for the challenges ahead.
