Description

This compact volume offers a clear, commonsense approach to protecting health within marriage, drawing on the author’s decades of experience as a wartime volunteer, journalist, and married woman. It combines practical medical advice on preventing venereal disease with everyday hygiene tips that were already familiar in France and the United States but little known in Britain. The book is addressed both to individuals who wish to safeguard themselves and to communities seeking broader public‑health solutions.

Readers will find straightforward guidance on self‑disinfecting ointments, contraceptive suppositories, and other simple measures that can reduce the spread of infection. The author also argues that stable, loving marriage is the most effective antidote to vice, presenting moral and social reasons for couples to choose fidelity. Written in an earnest, compassionate voice, the work aims to empower listeners with knowledge that can improve personal wellbeing and the health of society as a whole.
