An invaluable resource offering heavily cited research for maturing women and their partners, this book is a comprehensive guide to the changes in lifestyle, as well as in body, that menopause brings. When the first edition of the book was published in 1983, reviewers hailed it as th e most authoritative and accessible volume ever written on menopause and the general health and well-being of menopausal women.

Now in paperback, the revised edition includes several new chapters exploring such crucial women's health topics as the importance of good nutrition and exercise, overcoming smoking and obesity, and the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

Over the years scores of physicians have recommended this book to their patients, and thousands of readers (both women and men) have found its advice beneficial. This book contains a glossary of terms, an index, a bibliography, dietary tables, health charts, and a preface for men.
