About the Author
A nurse consultant and educator, Gwen authored and published the best-selling The Arthritis Exercise Book, accompanied by workshops and videos, aimed at helping people with arthritis live their lives to the maximum. Following the success of The Arthritis Exercise Book, she co-wrote two editions of The Osteoporosis Book with rheumatologist Dr. John Wade, which were endorsed by Osteoporosis Canada, and the third and fourth editions retitled The Osteoporosis Book: Bone Health with Dr. Wade and pharmacist Dr. Alan Low. It is currently being used in the American Bone Health Peer Educator Program. Her nursing and health promotion background, in conjunction with her personal experience managing her own rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, has made her a strong advocate for skeletal medical issues.
