Review:
"Rather than simply informing people of their risks, and of the measures they should take, The Blood Pressure Book leads its readers into action. It enables them to develop their own custom-made blood pressure control program, step-by-step." —John W. Farquhar, MD, professor of medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine
