the long version

Addresses the special concerns of Latinas--physiological, cultural, and spiritual. Discusses how to become a smarter health care consumer; how religious and spiritual traditions affect the way Latinas view their health; prevention and treatment of the diseases that most commonly affect Latinas such as diabetes, cervical cancer, and depression; sexuality and reproductive health, from a Latina perspective; and the essential roles of diet and lifestyle in preventing health problems.
