Did you notice this bit?
The textbook seems new-agey, but not necessarily in a fashion entirely consistent with leftist thought (much to the chagrin of the reviewer).
In place of the solid treatment of birth control that graced the 1996 book, the 2000 version has a muddled, confused, polemical section called "The Case for Total Abstinence for Young People." This section starts out with the vague and unfounded claim that "society as a whole believes that sexual relations should be practiced within the bonds of marriage." Oh, really? Which "society as a whole" is that?
This is not science ! That statement belongs in the Sex Ed curriculum .In my school district, they taught THAT material in 6th grade health class.
