From the Wall Street Journal:
When it comes to books about medicine and health, people tend to crack them open in times of need: to research a medical problem, get advice on living a healthier lifestyle or find inspiration from fellow patients.
This year’s crop offers plenty of practical advice, including insights from doctors who shared their own experiences with a health crisis to illuminate the way for patients. Here are five that stood out among dozens that crossed my desk in 2010:
“After the Diagnosis: Transcending Chronic Illness,” by Julian Seifter with Betsy Seifter
“Back to Life After a Heart Crisis: A Doctor and His Wife Share Their 8-Step Cardiac Comeback Plan,” by Marc Wallack and Jamie Colby
“Stress Less: The New Science That Shows Women How to Rejuvenate the Body and the Mind,” by Thea Singer
“The Decision Tree: Taking Control of Your Health in the New Era of Personalized Medicine,” by Tom Goetz
“Stay Healthy at Every Age: What Your Doctor Wants You to Know,” by Shantanu Nundy
