As not only individual inquirers, but the world at large, and even the medical profession, lack a rational, scientific and critical consideration of the effects of the birth-control methods now used by millions of people, this little book seems urgently needed. It is hoped that it will help materially to improve our race and to check the spread of nervous and other injuries so prevalent as a result of ignorant attempts to obtain that wise and health-giving control of parenthood which all who think must crave.
It forms a sequel of practical advice to the same author's book, "Married Love," of which serious and enthusiastic reviews have been published in many medical and popular journals.
"We hope millions and tens of millions of this manual gets into the hands of the younger generation."—Cambridge Magazine.
"I would strongly recommend any who are interested in the practical aspect [the scientific method of birth control] to read a little book which has just appeared, from the pen of Dr. Marie C. Stopes, 'Wise Parenthood,'"—C. Killick Millard (Medical Officer of Health for Leicester) in Medical Officer, Dec. 7th, 1918.
"The method is that which people, including many doctors, want to know.... It meets the immense æsthetic difficulties.... The work is especially for those happy people who recognise the kindred duty and delight of having, by a healthy mother, healthy children."—The Hospital.
