Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good (+) Jacket. First Edition. Solid binding with clean, unmarked text. Jacket with few micro tears. We knew it all along, but now here's proof--women are different! Healthy Women, Healthy Lives is the first book to be based on the now-famous 30-year study of thousands of nurses. Researchers from Harvard Medical School have assembled a straightforward medical guide focusing on the major preventable diseases that women are susceptible to, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and osteoporosis. The advice here is not particularly earthshattering. Eating grains and vegetables will make us healthier, as will exercising, maintaining a healthy weight, and not smoking. It's the level of practical detail in each chapter on disease that stands out; after reading this, you'll have a full understanding of how to balance your behaviors and unpreventable risks to achieve optimum health. Best of all, every detail is woman-specific, from healthy weights to average age of first heart attack.After providing ways for reading statistical charts and background on the study, the book is divided into two parts. The first 10 chapters are devoted to individual diseases, your possible risks, and ways to reduce those risks. Each chapter ends with a no-nonsense article written by a doctor, based on the study, that summarizes the advice that doctor gives to his or her own patients. The last chapters offer advice on changing behaviors. Here, you'll find suggestions on improving activity levels and diet modification, as well as the risks and benefits of aspirin, alcohol, and vitamins.If you're tired of the daily news reports with their conflicting evidence and suggestions, treat yourself to a book that delivers practical information, useful statistics, and advice that actually makes sense. --Jill Lightner 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. THE SEA WAR IN KOREA BY COMMANDERS CAGLE & MANSON 1957 NAVAL INSTITUTE 1ST DJ. I quote from the flap of the dust jacket: The Sea War in Korea is the first complete analysis from a naval point of view of the operational problems and lessons of the war. It is more than that, however. An exciting and sympathetic narrative, it portrays also individuals at war their courage, ingenuity, and humor in surmounting hardship and frustration. Please find then: The Sea War in Korea, by Commander Malcolm W. Cagle and Commander Frank A. Manson, U.S. Navy. This large hard cover book (6 ½ x 10 ½ inches, 556 pages) was published by the U.S. Naval Institute of Annapolis, Maryland, dated 1957 and I believe, it is a First Edition. The book is bound in sea blue buckram with white titles on cover and spine and protected by a printed paper dust jacket. The book is very well illustrated with a series of b&w photo sections (16 sections each of four pages each) appearing at varying intervals within the book as well as about 25 charts within the text and decorated endpapers. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The dust jacket shows some edge wear, the worst of which is a one-inch tear at the top of the front cover. Because of this tear, there is some fading from sun exposure of the color of the upper edge of the hard covers and a thinner line of fading along the bottom edge. Otherwise, the hard covers and their titles are bright and clean. Inside, a former owner has left his name and date twice on the front endpaper but that is the only mark I found in the book. The interior pages are bright white and clean throughout. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
