Description
Know and love your body with the first introduction to breasts for empowered health and wellbeing.
Become body literate with Breasts: An Owner's Guide, the first book in The Body Literacy Library, an enlightening series that will democratise health for a new generation of readers.
Breasts is an informative, practical, and engaging introduction to understanding and caring for our most mythologised and objectified body part.
Author Dr Philippa Kaye is both your GP and your friend, who believes everyone has a right to know their body. She translates medical jargon into simple, witty prose, answering frequently asked patient queries, and investigating what we love, fear, and most misunderstand about our mammaries.
From regular self-checks and bra fitting advice, to sports, breastfeeding and what to do when things go wrong, this taboo-tackling book applies science to the everyday, with simple illustrations, checklists, FAQs, and myth busters, all supported by the latest medical research.
