The Washington Post

Using a supportive but not overly personal tone, Jansen has created a handbook that in its self-contained chapters and detailed boxes allows the reader to take exactly what he or she needs. Jansen proves an excellent, trustworthy guide. His clarity itself provides relief.

Overcoming Infertility manages to be comprehensive without burying you in detail, as you move progressively through choices, from diagnosis to treatment, bypassing other people's problems.

Robert Jansen has provided an important and up-to-date resource for patients and clinicians alike. Dr Jansen is a skilled writer who brings wit, erudition, humanism and an extraordinary comprehension of scientific medicine. I must confess that I learned a great deal from reading this book - an approach to infertility, and its effects on people's lives, that is warm, sympathetic, confident, knowledgeable, and admirable.

I believe this exceptionally readable book is an important addition to the infertility literature. Dr Jansen's language dexterity, humor and creative intelligence make a potentially dry subject come alive. He proposes novel and intriguing concepts regarding the role of subfertility management in a non-patronizing fashion and concludes with a solid assessment of provider responsibility to the patient and to society.

Robert Jansen's book is a remarkably complete and up-to-date summary of our current knowledge regarding the causes of infertility and the best ways to treat it. Highly readable, at times provocative, it will be of interest to professionals and nonprofessionals alike.

I purchased your book some time ago and have found it to be a very valuable resource. Thank you for taking the time to help those of us on this fertility journey .... what they say is true .... knowledge is power. You've helped me obtain it.

It's amazing how a truly scientific and detailed book can still be so friendly and kind. This is a really helpful book.


Steven J. Ory, M.D.

Northwest Center for Infertility and Reproductive Endocrinology, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

Professor Jansen's book occupies a unique niche between a patient and physician directed audience, combining a scientist's perspective with a folksy conversational and highly entertaining writing style. His interpretation of infertility is circumspect, comprehensive and imaginative. This is a book that will be useful and informative to both clinicians and the lay public.

Dr Jansen is one of the great leaders in the exploding field of infertility and reproduction. His combination of scientific expertise and clear communication makes this book a wonderful guide to childless couples, and an interesting read for those who just want to know more about reproduction.


Professor Lord Robert Winston

Professor of Infertility Medicine, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, Hammersmith Hospital, London

author of Infertility and Its Management

Dr Jansen is a world authority on problems associated with infertility. This outstanding book is written with his usual clarity, intelligence and wit. It will be an invaluable guide not only to infertile couples, but to many others interested in how we reproduce and how abnormalities can be corrected.
