Harvard Men's Health Watch at 10 years:A special anniversary issue
It was August 1996. Bill Clinton was president, Google was two years in the future, the Yankees were on their way to another World Series victory, and nobody was talking about erectile dysfunction. And Harvard Men's Health Watch was born.
