The Women"s Complete Wellness Book
Thank goodness, an accessible medical guide for women that"s actually written by women. While it focuses on prevention, it"s vastly educational and empowering for when you do find yourself miserably sick or injured--or just curious about a particular health topic. Unlike other guides that combine statistics for men and women, the Women"s Wellness Book has dug up the facts that matter to help you improve your health. Supremely organized into 25 skillfully written chapters, it"s replete with charts, line drawings, and photos, with helpful "wellness tips" and "wellness warnings" in the margins throughout. Emotional health and sexuality are given much more coverage here than in most home health references, and the sections on menopause and perimenopause (a subject overlooked in many other similar books) are among the most comprehensive and up-to-date around.
