Good Reference
Good book for reference but not as detailed as I would have liked on some subjects, surprised it covers many medical conditions, not just 'female' ones.
An excellent and informative book for any woman aged 20 and up
I am especially interested in women's health and this book is better than I thought it'd be. It could also be perceived as a human body book aimed just at women. Not only does it cover health issues that only affect women but it also covers conditons and illnesses for every body system and how some conditions affect women differently to men. I have suffered from PCOS and mental health problems for a few years, so this book is excellent to give me information on those conditions. This book is highly recommended to women aged 20 - 79.
