Preventing Arthritis: A Holistic Approach to Life Without Pain

Ronald Melvin Lawrence. Penguin Putnam, $22.95 (286pp) ISBN 978-0-399-14742-5

An estimated 21 million Americans will develop arthritis, and three out of five of those will be diagnosed with the disease while under 65. Yet, in Preventing Arthritis: A Holistic Approach to Life Without Pain, physician Ronald M. Lawrence and health writer Martin Zucker (co-authors of The Miracle of MSM) argue that arthritis need not be an inevitability. In addition to exploring the ways that people who already suffer from arthritis can find relief, they also explain how readers can prevent arthritis through diet, exercise, yoga, massage and sex. Agent, Jack Scovil. (June 4)
