Use the standard package...

Needs["Algebra`InequalitySolve`"]

InequalitySolve[p*(1 - p) < q*(1 - q) && 
   0 < p < q < 1, {p, q}]

0 < p < 1/2 && p < q < 1 - p

I am an inexperienced user and am wondering whether Mathematica can help 
me with inequalities such as the following.

Given 0 < p < q < 1,

When is p(1-p)<q(1-q)?

It should be, if 1 - q > p.

Thanks!
