Description
Dr. Jean Marmoreo writes from the trenches of mid-life, behind the closed doors of the examining room where women tell the real story. It's a place where penetrating observations are made and theories are tested against reality each and every day. In The New Middle Ages Dr. Marmoreo addresses women's mid-life concerns from a unique perspective—that of a physician who knows their histories, hears their stories, and understands their fears and dreams like no one else.
The New Middle Ages is grounded in the stories of mid-life women, but filled with sound, practical medical advice from a good authority. A new middle-age woman is emerging.
What's inside:
- Physiological issues brought on by menopause
- Recharging a mid-life woman's sexual drive
- What women want to know about taking care of their heart and bones
- Stress and coping as mid-life women fulfill many roles—from taking care of children to taking care of elderly parents, careers, second marriages, and more
"The column [Middle Ages] is a huge success...can't imagine anyone else writing it!"
