I remember receiving this book when I was around sixteen years of age. It was of great help to me as my parents are Baby-Boomers and were brought up to not talk about anything to do with going through puberty or growing up with their kids; as their parents hadn't really done it with them. It had been a taboo subject in their time. And seeing I was borrowing this book from our local library constantly, they thought the next best thing for me (and the library) was if I had my own copy.
I found this book a fountain of knowledge. If I couldn't ask or talk to my parents about a certain thing, I could look it up in this book. However, if I couldn't find it in here, there was always the library I could go to find and read up on anything I needed to know.
Miriam Stoppard now concentrates her publications on pregnancy and caring for your new baby. But she is still working as a very famous and well-known doctor and author in her field. I've put the link to her official site on the side bar. And seeing I can't really find anything about her life, I can't really write anything about her here.
