Summary

After traveling the country and listening to women's most common health problems, Dr. Marianne Legato, one of the nation's leading advocates for women's health, answers these common questions and more in WHAT WOMEN NEED TO KNOW. This revolutionary book teaches women how to ask their doctors the right questions and leave the office satisfied. Dr. Legato is also the author of THE FEMALE HEART, a book that dispels myths that heart disease is only a male problem. Her co-author on both books is Carol Colman, one of the country's leading medical writers.
