This book is very general and not at all specific if you want to delve into disease and such. Overall, its not worth the price.

This is a great reference book for women of all ages. While it focuses on women’s health issues, many issues are also shared by men. The book doesn’t just cover reproductive issues, it covers just about everything that can affect a womans health, from perticides and waxing to alternative health options and wrinkles. It also covers disease processes, symptoms, medical evaluations/tests, treatment options, as well as rehabilitation/physical therapy. It is organized alphabetically, so looking something up is very easy. This is a very comprehensive, well organized reference book. I am a health care professional and have recommended this book to many of my peers, who have thanked me for recommending the book to them.
