"Errar é humano" é uma afirmação incontestável — e já virou até clichê. Mas como, de fato, lidamos com os erros que cometemos? Com amplo respaldo científico e olhar afiado sobre a sociedade contemporânea, os psicólogos sociais Elliot Aronson e Carol Tavris exploram, neste livro, histórias reais — algumas trágicas, outras bem-humoradas — que revelam como enfrentamos (ou evitamos) nossos deslizes, tanto na vida pessoal quanto na esfera pública. No centro dessa análise está um mecanismo poderoso e muitas vezes inconsciente: a autojustificação. Da política aos relacionamentos íntimos, esta obra é um verdadeiro tratado sobre a natureza humana — e, por isso, leitura incontornável para todos nós. "Um dos livros mais necessários e importantes para o nosso tempo." – Warren Bennis, autor de A essência do líder "Se este livro não mudar a maneira como pensamos sobre nossos erros, então estamos todos condenados." – Michael Shermer, autor de Por que as pessoas acreditam em coisas estranhas – pseudociência, superstição e outras confusões dos nossos tempos

女性必讀！ 在對的時間用對雌激素， 舒緩更年期症狀， 同時降低停經後心血管疾病、骨質疏鬆、失智、乳癌的機率！ 刻不容緩！令人引頸期盼！ 破除「雌激素會導致乳癌」的錯誤認知！ 研究嚴謹，鉅細靡遺，有助於醫師和患者討論荷爾蒙療法的益處和風險， 讓女性放心使用雌激素，活出更健康且長壽的人生。 許多人都有「更年期女性接受荷爾蒙療法會導致乳癌」的錯誤認知，但事實上，早在1990年代初期，全球早就累積了50年的證據，顯示雌激素除了能成功抑制大多數女性的更年期症狀，還能大幅降低心臟病、髖部骨折、大腸癌、阿茲海默症的風險，一直到今日，依然有許多後續研究證實，荷爾蒙療法並不會增加乳癌風險！那麼，為什麼現在仍有那麼多女性（包括許多醫師在內）會對使用荷爾蒙來改善更年期症狀有所疑慮呢？罪魁禍首就是2002年的「婦女健康研究」！ 腫瘤學家布盧明醫學博士，親自揭開「荷爾蒙恐慌」的來龍去脈，並以現有醫學證據進行嚴謹論證，帶你充分了解雌激素治療更年期症狀的益處與風險（好處比你以為的多，風險比你以為的低），讓廣大女性不再被似是而非的「發現」給嚇唬，而是學習評估風險與益處，做出對自己健康最有利的明確判斷。 治療熱潮紅、夜間盜汗、失去性慾、情緒波動大等更年期不適， 荷爾蒙療法還有這些好處！ 大部分女性在進入更年期都會出現更年期不適，只是，除了熱潮紅、夜間盜汗等明確症狀，還有很多症狀並不被女性認為跟更年期有關，例如心悸你會去看心臟科；肌肉或關節痛你會去看風濕科；失眠你會去掛睡眠障礙門診；憂鬱你會尋求心理諮商或精神科；腰圍變粗你會去找減重門診……但這些症狀其實「也有可能」跟更年期有關。 一直到今日，醫學界的共識依然是：「雌激素是治療女性更年期症狀最有效的方法。」然而這30多年以來，由於對荷爾蒙療法的錯誤認知等各種因素，使得女性更年期的健康和生活品質嚴重受損，更不用說，除了更年期症狀，隨著女性停經而來的，還有心臟病、心血管疾病、骨質疏鬆的健康風險明顯升高，而荷爾蒙療法其實有益於降低這些風險，並延長女性壽命。 ＊雌激素不是造成乳癌的主因：如果雌激素是造成乳癌的主因，乳癌發生率應該要在更年期以後下降，因為此時雌激素會自然減少，但事實上，女性更年期後的乳癌發生率反而提高了。 ＊雌激素有益於治療轉移性乳癌：研究指出高劑量的雌激素能有效治療轉移性乳癌，此外，在進行荷爾蒙補充療法或雌激素替代療法期間診斷出乳癌的女性，其預後也比未進行這類療法的病患更佳。 ＊雌激素有益於心臟健康：對從更年期早期就開始服用荷爾蒙的女性來說，雌激素替代療法或荷爾蒙補充療法對心臟有正面效果，因為雌激素能促進血管健康，或許有助於延緩斑塊形成。 ＊雌激素有益於血管健康：雌激素能減少血管收縮素（能使血管收窄）量，增加血管擴張素（能使血管擴張）量；增加腦部血流；抑制與動脈粥樣硬化的早期階段有關的發炎物質。 ＊雌激素有益於預防骨質疏鬆症：雌激素替代療法或荷爾蒙補充療法，是目前在預防或減少骨質疏鬆症發展上，副作用最少、效果又最好的介入手法，研究反覆證明，它能減少30%到50%骨質疏鬆症最使人嚴重失能的併發症（即髖部骨折）出現的風險。 ＊雌激素有益於延緩失智症：雌激素能刺激神經細胞生長，使軸突再生，減少阿茲海默症發病造成的神經細胞死亡。它讓腦部細胞對神經生長因子的效應更敏感，還能減少阿茲海默症的相關物質產生，例如β類澱粉蛋白與濤蛋白。 ＊雌激素有益於神經元健康：雌激素能加強神經元歷經各種生理損傷（如疾病與腦傷）後，活下來的能力。 ＊雌激素有益於降低大腸癌風險：接受雌激素替代療法或任何一種荷爾蒙補充療法的女性，罹患大腸癌的風險明顯偏低。 黃金十年機會之窗， 補充雌激素的關鍵時機！ 雌激素的使用有關鍵時機，稱為「機會之窗」，大致定義是在女性最後一次行經後的十年內，荷爾蒙補充療法在那個時期「開始」使用，所帶來的各種效益最好。如果進入更年期十年後才開始採用荷爾蒙補充療法，風險可能會稍微提升，例如心血管方面的問題，尤其如果你在使用雌激素之前就已經有動脈粥狀硬化的問題，那荷爾蒙療法有可能會進一步阻塞已經變窄的動脈。 又例如雌激素守護大腦、預防女性失智的關鍵，在於「無縫接軌」地延續腦部接受雌激素的時間，如果你更年期過了超過十年，大腦神經細胞已經有些受損了，此時再來使用荷爾蒙療法就可能無法帶來幫助…… 過時的雌激素觀念該退場了！ 好評推薦 【國內名人推薦】 我誠摯地向您推薦這本深入探討女性更年期問題的醫學書籍。作者通過對眾多研究結果的梳理，揭示了雌激素並非導致乳癌的罪魁禍首。同時，書中詳細闡述了荷爾蒙療法在照護更年期不適上所扮演的關鍵角色，以專業觀點和豐富的醫學證據，回答了停經婦女是否應該補充荷爾蒙的問題。在健康決策中，知識是最好的盾牌。我希望您閱讀完這本書後，能對自己的健康有更全面的認識，進而更明智地做出相應的決定。這本書將為您提供豐富的資訊，助您更深入地了解女性健康議題，成為自己健康的守護者。──周輝政 教授醫師，台安醫院婦產科主治醫師、資深行政副院長兼策略長；台灣精準醫學會理事長；台灣婦產科醫學會理事 美國開國元勳之一，富蘭克林（Benjamin Franklin）曾說：「人生有兩件事無法避免，死亡跟繳稅。」如果妳是四十五歲以上的婦女，清單還必須增加一項：更年期。如果能把握機會之窗，及時開始荷爾蒙療法，不僅可以舒緩更年期症狀，還能降低停經後心血管疾病、骨質疏鬆症、失智症的機率，延長壽命。然而，荷爾蒙長期以來一直被錯誤地與乳癌連結，因此，我樂見本書作者以批判性思考的方式，針對現有醫學證據進行嚴謹論證，讓不論是否已進入更年期的人，都能充分了解該療法的益處與風險（先劇透：好處比想像中多，風險則遠低於成見），再決定是否採取荷爾蒙療法。──陳珮凌 醫師，東元綜合醫院婦科主任 《Estrogen Matters》中文版在眾人殷殷期盼下，終於要出版了！本書作者、腫瘤學家阿夫魯姆及書中提到的許多醫學專家，透過實證的方式逐一揭開雌激素的神祕面紗。女性一輩子都需要雌激素，它就像國家音樂廳的樂團所譜成的「音樂交響曲」，動聽悅耳、節奏律動恰到好處，但過往我們總把雌激素與乳癌畫上等號，實為對雌激素之誤解，這也導致許多婦女錯過使用雌激素的好時機，而忍受更年期、停經後接踵而來的困境（心血管疾病、情緒障礙、骨質疏鬆、新陳代謝症候群、更年期生殖泌尿症候群）。根據我在臨床上運用雌激素的經驗，以及定期婦科檢查三點不漏，適當的雌激素的確可以協助熟齡婦女以優雅健康的方式面對停經後的生活，在此誠心推薦此書給所有女性！──張宇琪 醫師，台灣生物等同性荷爾蒙學會理事、中華亞太婦科美容學會監事、台灣更年期醫學會副祕書長、國際更年期醫學會會員、台北市立萬芳醫院婦產科主治醫師 「服用荷爾蒙恐增加罹患癌症的風險，特別是乳癌。」自2003年美國國家衛生研究院公佈「更年期與停經期間荷爾蒙替代療法的利與弊研究」結果以來，全球的女性對此深感不安，對荷爾蒙補充治療敬而遠之，寧可承受更年期的不適影響生活品質，也不願意進行荷爾蒙治療。本書作者根據眾多臨床醫學證據提出，女性荷爾蒙補充療法的好處遠遠超過潛在的罹癌風險。透過本書，女性朋友能夠全面了解更年期進行荷爾蒙補充的益處，並針對個人的疑惑找到答案。我誠摯推薦女性讀者閱讀本書。──賴宗炫 醫師，台灣更年期醫學會監事長、國泰醫院婦產科生殖醫學中心主任 【國外名人推薦】 一個有瑕疵的科學結論如何揮出一記重拳，改變了全球關於女性健康的醫療做法？在這本精彩著作中，布盧明與塔芙瑞斯挑戰那項結論，披露了其影響深遠的原因。──羅伯特．B．席爾迪尼 博士，《影響力》與《鋪梗力》作者 這本書的重要性，讓我想全力鼓勵每位女性閱讀。本書別開生面，研究嚴謹，從根本上說明雌激素對更年期，甚至診斷出乳癌後的諸多益處。它揭露了對研究結果的錯誤詮釋，如何導致女性（及其醫師）無來由地擔心使用雌激素的結果。本書鞭辟入裡的資訊，能協助女性更放心地使用雌激素，造福廣大女性活出更健康且長壽的人生。──派翠西亞．T．凱莉 博士，癌症風險評估專家、《評估罹患乳癌的真正風險》作者 有鑑於乳癌的發病率、死亡率、情緒壓力，以及治療乳癌的龐大後果，本書對於運用雌激素的傳統智慧提出正面抨擊，令人耳目一新，讓人樂見其出版。本書將激發人們對數十年來的雌激素臨床研究進行熱烈論辯，有助於臨床醫師與病患從新框架來看待並衡量激素療法的益處與風險。──傑洛米．P．卡希瑞爾 醫學博士，塔夫茨大學醫學院特聘教授、《新英格蘭醫學期刊》前總編輯 我為促進女性健康而努力已有二十多年，「婦女健康倡議」研究竟然為了反對激素療法而危言聳聽地宣傳並扭曲其自身發現，令我十分震驚。我希望本書能引起充分關注，使廣大女性及其醫師能克服對荷爾蒙補充療法的恐懼，以正視聽。──菲麗絲．格林伯格，女性健康研究協會會長暨執行長 本書令人引頸期盼已久，我要向作者的勇氣與努力（及其清晰機智的書寫）致敬。我相信對所有治療更年期女性的臨床醫師或罹患乳癌的女性來說，鼓勵病患讀這本書具有道德重要性，而且刻不容緩。──麥克．鮑姆 醫學博士，倫敦大學學院醫學人文學院客座教授 布盧明與塔芙瑞斯以雅俗共賞的筆調述說雌激素的故事。為了支持荷爾蒙補充療法，本書鉅細靡遺地研究，不厭其煩地推論，非常啟發人心！──哈麗葉．霍爾 醫學博士，《科學醫學》編輯 文筆流暢，見解深刻，一針見血，本書成功推翻了政府斥資數十億美元主持的「婦女健康倡議」研究，該計畫宣稱荷爾蒙對停經後女性有害。那項研究錯了。到頭來，雌激素對女性的健康確實很重要。──小文森．T．戴維塔 醫學博士，耶魯癌症中心醫學教授、耶魯大學醫學院流行病學與公共衛生學系教授

REVISADO Y ACTUALIZADO El libro que cambió la conversación sobre la terapia de reemplazo hormonal ( TRH ) Una defensa convincente y "fascinante" (Robert Cialdini) de la terapia de reemplazo hormonal ( TRH ) que evidencia de manera contundente sus beneficios para la salud y longevidad de las mujeres y expone las conclusiones científicas erradas que provocaron su rechazo. Durante años, la terapia de reemplazo hormonal (TRH) fue aclamada como un milagro. Estudio tras estudio demostraron que si se inicia este tratamiento al inicio de la menopausia, podría aliviar síntomas como bochornos y pérdida de memoria; reducir el riesgo de enfermedades cardíacas, alzhéimer, osteoporosis y algunos tipos de cáncer; e incluso prolongar la esperanza de vida de la mujer. Pero cuando la Iniciativa de Salud de la Mujer (WHI) anunció que las mujeres que tomaban TRH tenían un mayor riesgo de cáncer de mama, el miedo al estrógeno se disparó y se abandonó la terapia hormonal. Ahora, el oncólogo Bluming y la psicóloga social Tavris revelan la verdadera historia de los datos distorsionados que divulgó la WHI. Investigan qué fue lo que llevó al público en general —y a muchos médicos— a aceptar tan fácilmente las afirmaciones incorrectas y alarmistas de la WHI, a la vez que ofrecen una visión más completa de la ciencia que respalda la TRH. Entre las importantes novedades de esta edición revisada y actualizada se incluyen: Evidencia que desmiente la afirmación de la WHI de que la TRH causa cáncer de mama, así como una lista de sus retractaciones. Investigación actualizada sobre los beneficios del estrógeno en el corazón, cerebro y huesos, así como en la longevidad. Una revisión crítica de los productos y medicamentos alternativos que se están comercializando para tratar los síntomas de la menopausia. Una lectura sobria y reveladora que aclara los beneficios del estrógeno y ofrece una guía para las mujeres que atraviesan los cambios de la menopausia.
