Reviews
--William Pollack, author of Real Boys and codirector of the Center for Men at McLean Hospital, Harvard Medical Center
"A comprehensive and factual resource on a very delicate subject presented in a humorous and entertaining style. The authors cover all the bases, but do so with a light and sensitive touch. I would not hesitate to recommend this book to the parents of my patients."
--Joe M. Sanders, M.D., executive director of the American Academy of Pediatrics
