Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum's Heart Book by Dr. Suzann Steinbaum

I read health books occasionally; this one was on the new book shelf at MRRL.  The subtitle is: Every Woman's Guide to a Heart-Healthy Life.  Steinbaum covers much of the usual information about red flags, changing diet, and exercise.  She also thoroughly explains the various heart related tests and what they indicate.  One useful chapter is devoted to getting the most out of any doctor visit.  Much sensible advice, but I'll pass on doing a daily heart health diary - she you to record data about 32 items/day, including various emotional triggers like whether you laughed today or did things that you regret, like eat too much.  While she does have diet recommendations, this is not a diet book. 347 pages.
