Its title is: &#8220;The Vital Need for Family Planning and Abortion Services.&#8221; I wrote it in part due to a thoughtful article that appeared earlier this year, &#8220;My Personal [...]]]></description>

© Richard Grossman MD, 2010
One of the funniest videos I have ever seen is a French advertisement for glue: http://www.canneslions.com/lions/lightbox.cfm?sub_channel_id=103
The video opens with a pair of young nuns strolling in a cloister. Music is playing as the nuns carry bouquets of spring flowers. When they approach a white marble sculpture of a [...]]]></description>

© Richard Grossman MD, 2010
It was fifty years ago that the Food and Drug Administration approved “the pill”. What a half-century it has been!
The birth control pill made it possible for couples to have sex without concern about pregnancy. True, before hormonal contraceptives there were other contraceptives—but the condom, diaphragm and [...]]]></description>

The chief cause of problems is solutions.
(Eric Sevareid)
I once sat on an airplane next to an engineer specializing in failure analysis. I told him about my “rip-stop” condom invention, which I hoped would be less likely to tear. “I’ve never had a condom break,” he said. Then his face [...]]]></description>

May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may live deep within your heart;

© Richard Grossman MD, 2009
The International Conference on Population and Development helped propel me toward being a more dynamic population activist. Bryan (our younger son) and I attended the conference in 1994 with press credentials from The Durango Herald.
You may remember that the ICPD in Cairo, Egypt, strongly supported reproductive health. Unfortunately [...]]]></description>

If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.

	Living in the desert is challenging. We spent the week after Christmas in Baja California camping on the beach. Fortunately, our tents were comfortable and meals were cooked for us. Pedro, a Baja native, [...]]]></description>

“Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I was riding in a taxi in New York City. The radio was tuned to music on a Spanish language radio station.

	“No, I’m from Haiti. But I like [...]]]></description>

Governing a single nation is complex; building agreement between two hundred diverse countries is a monumental task. Getting those nations to solve a global problem, which affects each country differently, is beyond monumental. The United Nations will attempt to do just that this December.
Human ingenuity and population growth have lead [...]]]></description>
