About this book

"With her well-researched work, Gill Sanson has done both the physician and the layperson a great service. She has provided clear insight into the myths of osteoporosis. These myths motivate both patient and physician into a life of unnecessary testing and drug therapy -- therapy that can in fact be life-threatening. Her wel-documented explanation of these myths can spare women great anxiety. She takes the fear out of aging and restores women's sense of control over their bodies. She provides invaluable knowledge for creating and maintaining bone health while giving women good reasons for challenging the common way that osteoporosis is handled in the United States and in many other industrialized nations"--The Preface.
