Primary Health Care
The focus is on the older client group which makes a refreshing change and the sexual needs of men are not neglected.Easy to read, the book can be dipped into for relevant information.This book would enhance the personal collection of any primary care nurse working with older people.

Published on behalf of the British Menopause Society, this is a practical and
sensitive collection of articles on common sexual health issues which concern menopausal women and their partners. Many older women have an increased sexual response owing to a reduced fear of pregnancy, the end of menstrual distress and no longer needing contraception; however, with increased age comes associated sexual problems for both men and women.

Edited and written by leading specialists, each chapter is a minimum of 1500 words plus 10-15 up-to-date references for further reading. This book is recommended to GPs, nurses, and all professionals working in family planning and genitourinary medicine.
