Customer Reviews

Terrific resource with a personal touch!

I gave copies of The Healthy Woman to my mom and sister and several friends. All of them are thrilled with it! They like the topics covered, the clear format, and the illustrations. My mom is bringing it to her doctor to discuss the recommended screenings and immunizations. The personal stories which accompany each chapter help bring the information into human terms. I highly recommend this book - it was my most successful holiday gift this year!
