But despite their prominence, STDs have been shrouded in mystery and taboo for centuries, which begs the question: why do we know so little about them? Enter Ina Park, MD, who has been pushing boundaries to empower and inform others about sexual health for decades. With Strange Bedfellows, she ventures far beyond the bedroom to examine the hidden role and influence of these widely misunderstood infections and share their untold stories. Covering everything from AIDS to Zika, Park explores STDs on the cellular, individual, and population-level. She blends science and storytelling with historical tales, real life sexual escapades, and interviews with leading scientists--weaving in a healthy dose of hilarity along the way."--Amazon.com   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 616.951 Pa Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.951 Park Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.951 Pa Lost 10/03/2022 Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.951 Pa Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
