Synopsis This classic in women's health was revolutionary when it was first published it in 1994, and Dr. Christiane Northrup has updated her book many times since. In a supportive and informative manner, and using a holistic medical approach, Dr. Northrup encourages readers to tune in to their own intuition and to become their own authorities in regard to health issues. She encourages readers to create a personal medical plan, and includes much practical advice on choosing and relating to doctors. The middle of the book contains an in-depth guide to women's bodies and their health concerns. There is a huge amount of information in this section, and its straightforward approach seems unlike anything that came before. Always, Dr. Northrup is aware of what she calls the "cultural inheritance" that impedes the healthy and honest answers that all patients need.
