About the Author
Dr Rosemary Leonard’s work as a medical consultant to national television and newspapers makes her one of the UK’s best-known doctors. In recognition of her services to healthcare, she was awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours List, 2004. Rosemary’s ability to put across complex health matters without lapsing into medical jargon has led to many appearances on tv and radio. She has been the health adviser on BBC1’s Breakfast programme for the past eight years and has appeared on The Wright Stuff, Good Morning and Open House. She has 15 years experience in the print media, working first at the Sun and the Mail. She now writes a weekly health page for the Express and is a regular feature writer for Woman and Home and femail.co.uk. Rosemary also writes a column for the Tesco Healthy Living Magazine and is the GP representative on the Committee on Safety of Medicines, the national body licensing all medicines in the UK. She trained in medicine at Cambridge University and St Thomas’s Hospital Medical School, and now combines her demanding media schedule with her work as a partner in a busy practice in south London, where her special interest is in women’s health issues. She lives in Dulwich with her two sons.

Format:Paperback
Whilst on the surface, this book may appear to be another medical book on how to live healthily as a woman in the 21st century, it is not. It is a great guide to keeping yourself a strong, powerful and healthy woman, as well as keeping a look out for your daughters or just tips on looking and feeling great.
Good health is invaluable, therefore there is little reason not to own this book. It's is not a medical bible, it's not full of strange jargon, it's an empowering guide for you, and for all women, written by a woman who genuinely understands about the difficulties of living, working and trying to look fabulous (as society seems to demand), in the 21st century.
Don't think this book isn't for you if you are not a health freak. In fact if you aren't a health freak, then I recommend it to you all the more.
It is a great book written by a woman, for women, having considered the experiences of many, many women and it is an enriching read. Even men (esp fathers)would find it rather eye opening and a good way to understand women as they go through the many changes and phases of life. The cost of good health? It has to be invaluable. Every woman deserves to live well and as fully as possible, which is the authors aim, and acheived.
One to keep on the shelf when done reading to go back to when you hit the next 'Age' or to lend to your sister, daughter, grandma...just go get it!
