Some of the information might have been useful to me several years ago. However the book is both boring and repetitive. It moves on into areas that are general aging and have little or nothing to do with menopause. It makes assumptions about behaviour based on culture, not science. (Be glad if you lose genital hair, because you will need less bikini waxing.) I also saw several factual errors. ( )

A very easy to read. The book's subject is on something all women face and should know a little about. I am getting close to this age but am not quite there; however, it helped me to understand some things that are going on in preparation for the 'event'. Point being it is a book for all ages (once you start) no matter where you are in your stage of life. It covers so many more topics than just menopause and should be read by all women. The more we are informed, IMHO, the longer we live. ( )
