Roberts (cardiology, the Miriam hospital and Brown U.) has thoroughly updated her straight-talking guide for women seeking to make the best choices in cardiac care and prevent problems before they start. She describes what we know about the normal heart, symptoms of cardiac problems about which women in particular should be concerned (such as the chest pain conundrum), the amount and type of control women should take in their care, options in treatment, meanings of diagnostic tests for heart disease and the differences between men and women in reading them, the plusses and minuses of catheter procedures and surgeries, gender bias in medicine (historical and current) and resources both online and off. This will likely be a good resource for women seeking an initial resource for their particular concern, and contains helpful references for specific conditions, prevention strategies and treatments.
