Reviews

The author, from a patient's perspective, collects all sources of professional information and her abundant personal experience as a base to describe osteoporosis. She explains how osteoporosis would be handled by doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel. She also encourages the patients to prevent broken bones by exercises and diets in their daily life. I strongly recommend the book to all patients and medical professionals. -- Dr. Keh-Sung Tsai, The 4 th President of Taiwan Osteoporosis Association ... clarifies the inaccurate concepts from the Internet. It contains abundant information and really deserves my recommendation. -- Dr. Yung-Kuei Soong, The 6th President of Taiwanese Osteoporosis Assn. (TOA) ... a complete, practical, and easy-to-read reference for osteoporosis prevention ... As the founding president of the Taiwan Osteoporosis Association, I am delighted to recommend this book to you. -- Dr. Ko-En Huang, Founding President of TOA
