The Best Breast: The Ultimate, Discriminating Woman's Guide to Breast Augmentation

Rating:
Summary: The Best Book
Review: The Best Breast was by far The Best Book for information on the reality of breast augmentation. I have done research on augementation for about 4 years and decided not to have it done until I came across this book. It is an easy reading book filled with information I had not come across in all of my research. It is filled with facts, not horror stories. I had heard many horror stories just to find that that's all they were - other people's stories. They did not have to be my reality. After contacting Dr. Tebbetts staff and reading the book, I knew he was the one. My highest recommondation for anyone searching on augmentation is to READ THIS BOOK before you make any decisions. It was well worth the trip from Southern,CA to Dallas, TX to have Dr. Tebbetts do my surgery. Dr. Tebbetts and his staff are the best there is. They have my highest regards.

Summary: NOT THE BEST
Review: This book has a clear bias towards anatomical implants. Further, the font and formatting has bold and centered text throughout the book, which makes for difficult reading. Most of the information you can get for free from the web.

Furthermore, don't expect to actually get surgery done by Dr. Tebbetts without suffering through his very rude wife, Terrye. She was, by far, the most condescending person I have spoken regarding surgery. Her response to questions was "Can't you read. Everything you need to know is in the book."

Both the book and the office proved to be disappointing.

Summary: very repetitve
Review: This book is a very long winded explanation of all the choices, options and considerations women should think about when planning a breast augmentation. The style of the book is odd. Many "key" phrases are highlighted in bold or italic, and set off from the text, but this is done so often as to render the effect annoying rather than helpful. Also, the authors have clear biases towards one kind of surgery and implant over another, even though they claim to be presenting all options equally. You can get better information than can be found in this book by browsing the many web sites devoted to information about breast augmentation.

Summary: Nothing you can't get for free online
Review: This book is just a ploy to get you into this doctor's office for surgery. You can find all this information, plus a lot more, online for free. He also skips over a lot of important information. Save your money, the surgery is expensive enough.

Summary: A most informative guide to breast augmentation surgery
Review: This book should be required reading for any woman considering breast augmentation (BA). It is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to making a smart decision about BA -- deciding if you really want the surgery, choosing the best type and size of implant, selecting a competent surgeon and surgical method, undergoing and recovering from the surgery, and more. Dr. Tebbetts thoroughly educates his readers, advising what to look for and what to look out for in order to achieve the best results possible!

Summary: Good info, but some is biased.
Review: This is a great book if you're thinking about breast augmentation. It has a lot of good information about the risks involved, what to expect and how to find a good plastic surgeon. The author has a financial interest in the anatomical implant and the book is obviously biased toward that implant but if you take that with a grain of salt the rest of the book is well worth reading.
