Following up her previous books on health (e.g., "The Sexy Years"), Somers discusses bioidentical hormone replacement therapy as a tool for arresting the aging process. She recounts her own experiences and interviews others, both patients and doctors, who share her enthusiasm. The book is easy to read and may catch the attention of anyone over 35. On closer examination, however, her claims are not strongly substantiated. The so-called scientific explanations seem quite plausible, but solid research is sparse. Moreover, Somers contradicts herself on more than one occasion and makes several errors in fact, claiming, for example, that mens sexual peak is in middle age. There may well be something to her thesis, but more solid evidence is needed. Recommended only where there is demand."Susan B. Hagloch, formerly with Tuscarawas Cty. P.L., New Philadelphia, OH"
