A Must Read for a Happy, Healthy Bones
Dr. Schneider’s book is an essential tool for the care and maintenance of healthy bones. In my opinion, it is a must read for medical professionals and those of us wanting to equip ourselves with the best tools to maintain a healthy productive lifestyle. The exercise and nutritional tips are practical and useful for everyone but particularly for those facing the challenge of maintaining healthy bones.The format is user friendly and the “The Bare Bones” chapter rap ups are concise and to the point. The good news – it’s never too late to start caring for your bones. I’m thankful to have come across this book and highly recommend it!!

More than I was expecting
I think the book is fantastic!Perfect in the sense that it is suitable for a lay person and can take them about as far as they want or need to go into the science.I think the set up of the Contents is really good. It shows that the answers to questions you have been thinking about are inside.My wife is on Actonel and she told me to order her another copy so she take it to her next appointment with her Doctor and give it to her.My daughter, a brand new (PharmD) looked at the book for quite a while and was very impressed. She said that she was not expecting it to go as deep as it does. She says she thinks it is very suitable for a medical professional to use to refresh themselves quickly. She is going to keep a copy close by.I ordered 4 more copies for friends

Great resource for bone health for all ages.
I accidentally found this just published book at the local library, about the time I had been diagnosed with osteoporosis. It was so helpful and informative, I ordered it to have as a reference and have time to study different treatment options available. It was easy to understand and it compared the differences in the various prescription medicines. I felt very prepared on my follow-up doctor visit when deciding what prescription and course of action was right for me. Also a great source for young women and mothers to guide them on a life-long path of bone health by the choices they make today; highly recommend.

Best book on Bone Health
Dr, Schneider’s book, Bone Health, is a major contribution to understanding what we need to maintain healthy bones throughout our lives. Two years ago a bone density scan revealed I had osteopenia. My mother had osteoporosis. Bone Health reveals some of the things I’ve already been doing such as weight-bearing exercises, more calcium and vitamin D intake. However, Dr. Schneider, in a succinct, clear and understandable way, gives us information on all the medications available and some of the cutting edge treatments in development. This book is a must-read for both men and women of all ages. I’m sharing it with my daughter.

If you read one book on Osteoporosis, read this one!
“Bone Health” was recommended to me by my primary doctor. I am amazed at how comprehensive, useful and current it is. This book provides practical information on a wealth of topics and will give the reader a good understanding of the many aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteopenia. Best of all, you can read it cover to cover or focus on the particular topic you are interested in. It is so well written and organized. It is a book you will keep on your book shelf as a resource when questions comes up about low bone density and find relevant information.

Easy to understand
I am giving this book to everyone in my family. It addresses a topic that most people ignore. Having good bone health is within everyone’s reach. It is like having the specialtist (Dr. Schneider) in your own home patiently explaining what you need to know to reach this goal. Sure, there is plenty of technical stuff for the Doctors who will read this; but, she writes so that we all can understand and learn from it. She even summarizes each topic with what she calls The Bare Bones, in case you missed the key points of the chapter. It is a great reference book.

Not so complete
This book is certainly informative, but despite the title, it is significantly incomplete. This is a starter book–giving an overview of bone related information.If you’ve been diagnosed with the most common bone ailment — osteoporosis or osteopenia, you need a book with much more practical information, especially about exercises and medication.The section on “Therapies for Prevention and Treatment of Osteoporosis,” starts with a lengthy discussion about medication clinical trials, standard deviation, etc, but the author only casually and very briefly mentions the side-effects often attributed to these medications.Exercise in general is encouraged, but no specific exercises or exercise regimens are provided.I shopped the library and found a smaller book that offers more practical information “100 Questions and Answers about Osteoporosis and Osteopenia.” Full of pertinent information and suggestions. The question/answer format is supported by a good Table of Contents and thorough index so it is easy to find and refind what you need to know.
