A fascinating, revisionist look at 16th century English politics (both public and private), examining the lives of Henry VIII's six wives as active personalities "Provocative thoughts on the why and wherefore of the matrimonial quests of Henry VIII and the women who were party to them."--Denver Post "Lindsey's book reads like a romance novel: airy, witty, full of drama and compassion, . . . more about sentiment than feminist theory. . . . Her chronicle is lustier, more concerned with emotion and the peculiarities of being human than other accounts have been, and her presence as a moral authority is palpable."--Los Angeles Weekly "Lindsey is insightful and disarmingly funny in her musings on Henry and his sorry wives."--Arizona Republic "This is an engaging read that conveys well the feelings not only of the characters but of the era as well. An occasional bit of dry humor blends nicely with Lindsey's intelligent writing style."--Tulsa World

"We're the baby boomers," writes renowned women's health advocate Dr. Susan Love. "We wanted to change the world in the sixties. During the sexual revolution we claimed the right to enjoy our bodies. We wanted more knowledge about how our bodies worked. We read books about menstruation and childbirth. Now we're approaching menopause, and we want to decide for ourselves how we'll experience this process as well. But how do we do that? We're faced with all kinds of options, and with them all kinds of questions." With Dr. Susan Love's Hormone Book, Dr. Love will help you decide for yourself how you want to move through this stage of life. Here's the information you really want to know to answer your most pressing concerns: You've been having symptoms -- hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings. What are your options for coping with them? You've read in the newspapers that after menopause women are in danger of heart disease or osteoporosis, and you don't want to wind up like that hunched-up elderly woman you saw in the supermarket checkout line. How likely is it? Your doctor thinks taking hormone replacement therapy might be the answer, but you're not sure: How does it work? What can and can't it do? Is it safe? Your mother sailed through menopause and your symptoms don't bother you. Do you need to do anything at all? You've had breast cancer or heart disease. What choices will work for you? You don't like the idea of medication. Are there any life-style changes or alternative approaches worth exploring? With clarity and compassion, Dr. Love will help you sort through the answers to these and other confusing questions. She emphasizes that menopause is not a disease that needs to be cured; it's a natural life stage. She tells you what you need to know about coping with symptoms and addressing concerns about osteoporosis, heart disease, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and more. And she walks you through every option for the short and long term.: lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, and stress management), alternatives (including herbs and homeopathic remedies), other medications, and a thorough discussion of the pros and cons of hormones. An in-depth questionnaire on your personal health risks and lifestyle preferences will help you put it all together to make choices to fit your unique needs--choices Dr. Love encourages you to reconsider as your life situation changes. Also included are guidelines for finding the right health care professional, a resource guide of helpful books, newsletters, and organizations, and more. You know your body better than any doctor, and you're in the best position to assess your individual needs, risks, and lifestyle choices and to decide how you want to more through menopause. With Dr. Love's authoritative, comprehensive new book, you'll have the information you need to make the decisions that work best for you. From the Hardcover edition.

Desde que apareció en 1990, Dr. Susan Love’s Breast Book, y a lo largo de sus cinco ediciones en inglés, este libro se ha convertido en una especie de Biblia para el cuidado de las mamas y los riesgos que se pueden enfrentar. Es una guía útil para quien quiera entender todo lo relacionado con las mamas, quien esté preocupada por el cáncer de mama y para quienes lo hayan superado. Aunque incluye los últimos avances médicos, utiliza un estilo sencillo, accesible y didáctico para analizar las razones científicas que dan origen al cáncer de mama. Sin embargo, también aborda temas como antecedentes genéticos, la fisiología, el amamantamiento, la sexualidad o la cirugía plástica. Asimismo, analiza con gran sensibilidad las consecuencias físicas, emocionales y familiares del cáncer de mama. La doctora Love elimina barreras entre autor y lector, con numerosos ejemplos que describen situaciones que le pueden pasar a cualquiera. Esta obra, que por primera vez aparece en español, a partir de la traducción de la última edición, no se trata de un pesado manual médico-científico sobre el cáncer de mama orientado a los especialistas, sino una amplia guía pensada para ti, que aborda todos los enfoques, desde los científicos hasta los emocionales, de una forma completa, sencilla y amena.
