Dr. Michael E. Platt, board certified internist, bio-identical hormone expert, and author of the highly-praised The Miracle of Bio-Identical Hormones, How I Lost My: fatigue, hot flashes, ADHD, ADD, fibromyalgia, PMS, osteoporosis, weight, sexual dysfunction, anger, migraines... Clancy Lane Publishing, 2007, ISBN 978-0-9776683-2-8, has won a 2008 Independent Publishing Book Awards Outstanding Book of the Year Award for Most Progressive Health Book. This is Dr. Platt's fourth health book award this year; he previously won Allbooks Review Editor's Choice Award for Best Health Book 2008, Reader Views Best Alternative Health Book Award, and a USA Book News health book award. Dr. Platt will receive his IPPY Award at a Book Expo America 2008 ceremony on Friday, May 30, 2008 in Los Angeles, California.
"For 25 years our mission at Independent Publisher has been to recognize and encourage the work of publishers who exhibit the courage and creativity necessary to take chances, break new ground, and bring about change, not only to the world of publishing, but to our society," states Jim Barnes, Awards Coordinator. The winners "represent the cutting-edge of independent thinking and expression."
"This year's IPPY contest attracted 3,175 total entries. Books came from 49 U.S. states (come on, North Dakota!), D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands; 9 Canadian provinces (get with it, Northwest Territories!), and 16 countries around the world: Trinidad to Thailand, Croatia to Czech Republic, and France to Finland," adds Barnes.
Wellness colleagues, book reviewers, and patients in the U.S. and abroad laud Dr. Platt's The Miracle of Bio-Identical Hormones for its "reader-friendly exploration" of how natural (non-synthetic) bio-identical hormones can have the power to heal many maladies often considered "incurable." "This is the most important health book published this year, or any year for that matter. It's an easy, fascinating, highly-informative, even life-changing read," states Barbara Morris, compounding pharmacist and author of Put Old On Hold. The book is also considered an excellent primer for compounding pharmacists and others in the wellness community who work with bio-identical hormones.
Dr. Platt's book, now selling on Internet bookseller websites (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, drplatt.com, and others), and in U.S. bookstores, is distributed by Midpoint Trade Books of New York, New York.
Dr. Platt, founder of the Platt Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, CA, is internationally known for his innovative, preventive approach to medicine. His protocol allows his patients to successfully relinquish most, if not all, of their medications. Dr. Platt has devoted 34 years of his practice to wellness, and, since 1983, to the concept of balanced hormones.
