Today, AIDS is the most high profile sexually transmitted disease (STD) that is in the news, but there are other lesser-known STDs such as herpes, gonorrhea, and syphilis that can easily go undetected and that young people should know about. Ann Byers describes the ailments that can be contracted through sexual contact, their symptoms, and, in some cases, their cures. Media and societal attitudes towards STDs are also addressed in this book.
