Book excerpt: "I would like to commend you for your pioneering efforts to educate the nation's school age population about AIDS & other sexually transmitted diseases (STD). The GUIDE provides a clear approach based on scientific & medical information that allows teacher flexibility in applying community standards. I wish you continued success in your development & implementation of health education materials for the nation's elementary & secondary schools. You are regarded as an ally in the fight to contain AIDS."--C. Everett Koop, M.D. "...the GUIDE presents abstinence as the most effective method of preventing AIDS, & it emphasizes responsible sexual behavior & prevention of drug use..."--U. S. Department of Education. "The GUIDE was written by teachers for teachers & its teacher friendliness is obvious in its easy-to-use, classroom ready design. The extremely reproducible lesson plans save time & money, & its unique format allows the teacher to adapt the materials to the needs & values of the community. From this teacher's point of view, this is simply the best AIDS & other STD material available now. The National Association of Teachers of Comprehensive Health Education (NATCHE) endorses the use of this Guide."--Ric Loya, NATCHE
