Summary:
This volume gathers the papers from the third conference on ethical fertility health management. There are twelve papers from the perspective of science and seven from the perspective of faith. The science chapters cover the latest research on nutrition and (male and female) fertility, use of intercourse patterns and breastfeeding for avoiding pregnancy, and findings from the recent Title X funded natural family planning (NFP) research studies. The faith chapters analyze the philosophical, theological, sociological and cultural aspects of NFP.
