Editorial Review: In the first edition of this important bestselling book, praised by Newsday as “the bible for a whole generation of menopausal women,” renowned physician and pioneering women’s health advocate Dr. Susan Love warned about the potential dangers of the long-term prescription of hormone replacement therapy.

Menopause - a user's guide., 2006-04-01
The most practical, informative, and entertaining (I'm not kidding) book I've found on perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Love tells you what you may (or may not) experience, without committing a "one-experience-fits-all" blunder. I enjoy her social commentary regarding American attitudes toward women, aging, and aging women. It's especially helpful to me as I near this second puberty.
Women and men of all ages would probably benefit from reading Chapter Two alone. The pharmaceutical companies are not (necessarily) your friends.
Good stuff.

 Dr susan Love's menopause and Hormone Book, 2005-09-30
So far so good. Very believeable and understandable. makes good sense. I'm not even 1/2 way thru book yet. I was not happy though with the construction of the book. Some of the pages are falling out because they were not glued in right.
