This guide aims to explode the myths and misinformation about circumcision in an accessible, easy-to-read format. After describing the anatomy of the [[penis]], the book explains the procedure, describes the risks associated and debunks the six most common reasons doctors will give when recommending it.

Each year, almost two million boys are routinely (non-therapeutically) [[circumcised ]] after birth -- even though there is rarely a sound medical reason to do so!

Now a leading pediatrician exposes the myths and misconceptions of America's most commonly performed surgery, including little-known religious support for not circumcising, in this balanced, comprehensive, and compassionate guide that will change your mind about everything you thought you knew about this procedure.
