So Many Options

"For Women Only" contains a wealth of information for women like myself who want to know their options.When I face health problems or other dilemmas, I do not take the first solution presented because I have found by hard experience that many of the answers that the so-called experts offer do not work. I am grateful to the authors of this book for presenting so many valuable alternatives.

Not just any guide to women's health

The practice and politics of women's health come together in this unusual--and much needed--tome. I especially enjoyed the second section, which was edited by women's health crusader Barbara Seaman, and which contained heaps of fascinating, sometimes provocative, material for anyone interested not just in women's health, but also in the larger realm of women's issues.

A must read anthology!

Barbara Seaman has done an excellent job collecting materials for her book FOR WOMEN ONLY. Topics range from breast cancer to domestic violence to pregnancy. There is also plenty of information about the women's movement, history and predictions for the future. Gary Null and Ms. Seaman, women's health advocate and author of such books as Doctors' Case Against the Pill and Lovely Me, the Story of Jacqueline Susann, have produced another informative and well written book. It's a must read for women of all ages!

For Women Only! Your Guide to Health Empowerment

Thank you, Dr. Null, for holistically addressing the health concerns that are predominant in women. The politics behind female healthcare are shocking and frightening. You put it all into perspective within these covers. You also saved me from the quandary of what to buy all the women in my family for Christmas. You're insightful and have a wealth of helpful information. Bless you.

A must read!

This book is astounding. I had no idea the scope and depth that Gary Null scholarship would have in relationship to my own health issues. It's so completely easy to use and helpful. I found more information on breast cancer than anywhere else including all the other books I've read. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
