Summary: complete reference book
Comment: I dub the authors of this book "King and Queen of NFP". I have a copy of it in my bedroom and another one by the telephone. You do not have to read all of this reference book to learn nfp, but it will make you an expert in the field of nfp if you do. I have been using nfp since l983 (it is now 2008) and this book has had all the answers I have needed throughout my childbearing years. I have been teaching nfp for around 15 years and it has answered all the phone call questions that I have had as well. I have not had to look at other books or call other people...it's ALL here.

Summary: Good, but a better book is available
Comment: This book has been the Couple to Couple League's "handbook" for the last 30 years or so. It has a lot of information, but is cumbersome to the beginner. It also is very preachy, even to practicing Catholics. It teaches 4 rules for postponing pregnancy and is overly complicated. The sections on mucus can be confusing.
The Couple to Couple League has just come out with all-new materials for the sympto-thermal method. It is "The Art of Natural Family Planning Student Guide." It is modernized and straight forward. It still encompasses religious reasons for choosing NFP, but it does so with respect for the reader. It is mostly used in conjunction with the live courses, but it can also be used alone. The 4 rules of the other book have been combined into one easy rule. It is still 99.9% effective, they have just found a better way to teach it after 30+ years of experience. The mucus explanations are highly friendly to the new user. I haven't found the new one yet on Amazon, but you can get it through the Couple to Couple League for now. I recommend it over the older one.

Summary: Great resource!
Comment: I found this book extremely helpful and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to use NFP as a means of either pregnancy prevention or pregnancy achievment. The book is very descriptive and leaves no question unanswered when it comes to this method. Definitely an excellent resource!

Summary: Simply The Best!
Comment: Trying to have a baby (or another one)? Trying to avoid pregnancy? Want to know what makes NFP so popular? This book has it all! Very informative about every aspect of the three signs that make up the Sympto-Thermal Method (STM). It also has helpful information if you're trying to conceive. Or maybe you're just interested in learning how your body actually works. It truly is a art as well as a science, and the Kippleys do a great job in helping you master your OWN fertility awareness, instead of relying on (somewhat unreliable and sometimes dangerous) alternatives.
Bar none, the best NFP book there is. I simply can't recommend it enough.
