Good health starts in the community which consists of not just a healthy lifestyle but good health literacy.

This book will address the unique health issues of a woman's life, using a comprehensive biopsychosocial approach in the different stages of a woman's life. It will reach out to women of all backgrounds, especially those from a lower socioeconomic background through he and start them on a path of self-awareness and self-care.
