       Ann E. Kearns, MD, MAYO CLINIC ON OSTEOPOROSIS

       Ann E. Kearns, M.D., MAYO CLINIC ON OSTEOPOROSIS:  KEEP YOUR
       BONES STRONG AND RESIST YOUR RISK OF FRACTURES (2021) is by an
       endocrinologist at Mayo Clinic and is an informative and
       up-to-date account of what osteoporosis is and its possible
       causes and treatments.
       There are valuable suggestions on how to arrange your daily life
       so as to avoid falls and fractures, and there is important
       information about the types of fractures typically encountered
       in osteoporosis and osteopenia.
       When discussing possible links with other diseases, the author
       mentions autoimmune diseases like lupus but does not mention MS
       even though quite a few researchers have noticed the frequency
       with which the two disorders seem to turn up in the same
       patient.
       The book is clearly written and not overly technical. It should
       be helpful to anyone facing diminishing bone density or
       osteoporosis--or to anyone interested in the topic in general.
