a must-read for anyone facing hysterectomy
This book is designed to help a woman ask the right questions, the most important of which is "What are my alternatives to hysterectomy?" No doubt having a female ghost writer, recognized on the front cover as one would expect from a sensitive person such as West appears to be, helped make this a clear and interesting read for the women to whom it is targeted. Everything one would want to know is ...

Great reference for EMBs!
I ordered this book when I needed to master the diagnostic criteria for a wide ranger of endometrial pathology commonly seen in biopsies. I was amazed by how easy a read it is, as well as how informative and useful the book has been. A little pricey, but definitely worth purchasing.

A Necessary Staple When Making A Serious Decision
I'm going through a difficult decision in regard to breast augmentation. I have now read this book twice. It's clear and helpful. The interesting aspect that Dr. Freund brought into the book that beauty is regional. What works in LA doesn't work in New York. It's interesting, informative and I'm reading it again.

Women of Courage!
The courageous authors of this remarkable book have accomplished the near impossible: They have taken on the medical profession and revealed its LIES AND COVER UPS. These are real stories by real women who TRUSTED THEIR DOCTORS and were BETRAYED, physically and psychologically damaged, and abandoned by those in whom they entrusted their very lives. I can only imagine the pain and torment these ...

I laughed as I wept; life-or-death questions answered.
One of the most feared cancers is ovarian cancer, with good reason. It may be asymptomatic; what early symptoms do appear are vague, diffuse, and often are not taken seriously by either women or their doctors. As a result, the disease is often advanced before diagnosis occurs--as in the tragic case of Gilda Radner. This book lives up to its subtitle: sharing personal experiences and a ...

Outstanding text-user friendly for students!
In a textbook review process designed for ABSN students on March 23, 2006, at the Duke School of Nursing, students reviewed, rated and chose this new text as their textbook for their summer 2006 course: The Nursing Care of the Childbearing Family. As the course coordinator, I have become increasingly frustrated with the ongoing complaints of students about the size and "massive" amounts of ...

inspiring journey of a wise and gentle soul
The last time I used a highlighter on a book, it was around 1988, I was writing a college paper on Virginia Woolf's "To the Lighthouse," and I needed to mark recurring themes. In reading "Profound Healing" 15 years later, I finally reached for a highlighter again, because I knew that a) I would be keeping this book for a long time, and b) after I finished gobbling up the "plot," I would want to ...

excellent, concise, comprehensible resource
While I have only read a handful of books and papers on the topic, I found this to be the most accessible and fun resource among them. As with all the "For Dummies" books, the organization flows easily from one topic to the next, making the book as useful for someone looking for a specific or even random tidbit on the topic, or one looking for a more comprehensive summation of the disease, its ...

I love this book
Crum has some different ideas about cervical neoplasia from most folks (at least in the places I've trained and practiced), but this text, purchased as an alternative to Kurman's Blaustein book (which I've never thought was a good read), has been a really pleasant suprise!!! The coverage of ovarian neoplasia and benign endometrium are very nice. Illustrations are wonderful and numerous---there is ...
