A groundbreaking book on women's physical and emotional well-being, Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom has become a classic, with more than 270,000 copies in print in the four years since its initial publication. Now it has been completely revised, offering the most up-to-date information available on women's health issues.
Christiane Northrup's vision of mind-body wellness has received an extraordinary response from women all over the world. Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom powerfully demonstrates that when women change the basic conditions of their lives that lead to health problems, they heal faster, more completely, and with far fewer medical interventions.
Now Dr. Northrup brings us vital new information about the best techniques of Western medicine and the best alternative therapies, showing how to incorporate both into a complementary whole. She guides readers through the entire range of women's health problems, and offers strikingly new, positive perspectives on normal processes, such as menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. This edition includes:
• An all-new nutrition chapter emphasizing individual dietary needs and body chemistry
• New information on improving fertility after age 35—and how to cut the risk of C-section by 50 percent
• A completely updated program for menopause, including how to decide whether natural hormone replacement is right for you
• Holistic ways to prepare and heal faster if surgery is necessary
• Plus dozens of new natural treatments and a wealth of hard-to-find health care resources
Filled with dramatic case histories from the famed Women to Women health care center, Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom is contemporary medicine at its best, combining new technologies with natural remedies and the miraculous healing powers within the body itself.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Never Too Old to Learn
Comment: This book contains LOTS of important information for women. It is well written and very readable. Don't be put off by the length or the many medical terms. There are many good ideas about nutrition and living well in your own body. Can be somewhat repetitive.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fabulous!
Comment: This is a well-rounded approach to women's physical health, and the mental-spiritual connection that ties it all together. This isn't just a doctor's remedy book, this tells us the power that we hold within ourselves, to visualize a better, whole being.
Customer Rating:
Summary: better than a dictionary
Comment: I use this all the time...the section w/info on Chakras are quite interesting..this is what makes you "tick". BUY THIS.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fantastic book!
Comment: This should be given to all young women when they graduate high school. (Not before, because it's long and smart and you need a full grown brain to get the most out of it.) It is both inspiring and truly useful in everyday life. I love it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good Information
Comment: Some good information from Dr. Northrup but some of it has been said before too many times. I would recommend Saudra Pelletier's "Awake at the Wheel" to inspire you for work/life balance as well. Saddle Up Your Own White Horse: 5 Principles Every Woman Needs to Know
