Creating a library

[robertandenith]

I want to create a library and will love to hear your recommendations.

The ideal will be getting books in Spanish AND English.

ie. Anatomy of the Penis/Foreskin, History of Circumcision, etc.

TIA

I personally have:

"Circumcision Exposed - Rethinking a Medical and Cultural Tradition" by Billy Ray Boyd
and
"Doctors Re-examine Circumcision" by Thomas Ritter, MD and George Denniston, MD

I borrowed a book from my library called "Circumcision: A History of the World's Most Controversial Surgery" by David L. Gollaher. I never had a chance to read it as my husband picked it up and read the entire book! Then, it was time to return it. He said it was very good and educational and he couldn't see how any pro-circer would be accepting of circ after reading the book. We moved and our current library does not have a copy. But DH highly recommends it if you can find it.

I love Rob Darby's Book "A Surgical Temptation: The Demonization of the fore skin and the Rise of Circumcision in Britain'. Af fascinating history of how we to where we are today, including some on the history of male sexuality, and attitudes towards Male sexuality, history of the understadning of disease, history of the practice of urology in the 1800s, etc. I highly recommend it!

thank YOU! I wish I had this book back when an acquaintance was having twins I gave her a packet with breastfeeding twins related info and info about circumcision. I havent even asked her if she circ or not, for fear that she would say she did. isn't that bizarre?

I know that feeling. I sent some stuff to a girl and I am just dreading hearing back from her that she circed anyway.
