Condom Industry in the United States

The AIDS epidemic and the spread of other sexually transmitted diseases have drawn attention once again to the condom as a contraceptive and a protective agent against infection. Experts are touting the age-old condom as an important aspect of safe sex. Controversial television commercials and billboards are advocated by worried governments. The historical background and evolution of the industry, the manufacturing process, cost factors, the distribution structure, competition, regulation, consumer acceptance, societal costs, and profits are explained from an economic point of view.Murphy, James S. is the author of 'Condom Industry in the United States' with ISBN 9780899505336 and ISBN 0899505333.
