Thyroid Disorders

Thyroid disorders affect one in every 20 people in the UK at some point in their lives. Once diagnosed, however, thyroid conditions can be treated effectively and good health restored. In this comprehensive handbook, Dr Rowan Hillson offers clear advice on how to recognise when something is wrong and what you can do about it. She discusses problems of both overactive and underactive thyroid, thyroid eye disorders and goitres. The book covers all the treatments available and also offers preventative advice on how to avoid thyroid disorders.

Reviews

This book is filled with good ideas to make life easier

—— Lorraine Kelly

A lot more than just a book with a list in it

—— Baby Magazine

A refreshing alternative to the traditional baby names book

—— My Weekly

Heart-warming, funny and jam-packed with common sense

—— Woman's Day

A salve for frazzled parents

—— Herald on Sunday

...gave us all the tools we needed to get our baby sleeping through the night

—— Greg Kinnear, actor

Jill Spivack...the most well-known childhood sleep consultant in Los Angeles

—— LA Family Magazine

Our twins were up constantly at night until we found The Sleepeasy Solution. Thank you for giving us the sleep we'd been dreaming of

—— Marcia Cross, Actor

Intimate, yet well-researched..comedic and poignant, her many-faceted memoir is rendered in high-definition as Heller recounts meals, travels, parties, arguments, lies, and the serious illnesses that afflicted her and her parents. Writing with wit, compassion, aplomb, and no little wonder at what her father wrought and her mother endured and how this legacy shaped her, Heller presents an involving and invaluable work of personal and cultural history.

—— Booklist

Heller's family memoir brims with warm reflections right from the opening chapters... An affectionate family scrapbook crafted with a bittersweet blend of humor and pathos

—— Kirkus Reviews

Erica Heller to me is like a Carrie Fisher on the East Coast. She is as authentic as they come

—— Richard Lewis, comedian, actor, author

Erica Heller has a story to tell and I for one am eager to see it in print. I think this is going to be one hell(er) of a memoir

—— Christopher Buckley, author of Losing Mum and Pup

The New York of the period leaps off the page

—— Emma Hagestadt , Independent

Heller's domestic side is evoked with painful detail by his daughter, Erica, in her well written, occasionally harrowing memoir, Yossarian Slept Here

—— Sunday Times

Likeable memoir...just as Daugherty is blind to the limitations of Heller's work so he appears resistant to personal criticism of Heller or rebuke. Just One Catch is no hagiography but, of these two biographical accounts on Yossarian Slept Here gives us the gruff, arrogant big shot; the smug cocky fellow who sometimes showed up to friend's cocktail parties for the sheer fun of insulting them

—— Leo Robson , Financial Times
