Description
The New York Times Book of Health, by Brody and reporters of The New York Times, tackles complex questions. Recognizing that consumers sometimes feel overwhelmed by the relentless and often conflicting stream of health reports, Brody and her colleagues distill the information you really need from current findings, present balanced assessments of often contradictory medical advice, and offer sensible guidelines that won't go out of date overnight. This revised selection of more than a hundred articles that originally appeared in the newspaper organizes today's major health concerns into eleven useful sections, providing a practical and professional evaluation of good health vs. bad habits; controlling weight; exercise; eating properly; the debate over vitamin supplements; heart disease; cancer; pregnancy and birth; children's health; menopause; and aging, among other topics.
