A handy all-purpose home medical reference

{Review written June 2005} This is a handy all-purpose home medical companion, which is useful for reading up on various problems and conditions as you, your family and friends encounter them in life. Want to read up on the various forms of arthritis ? It's in there. Diabetes ? Menopause ? Sprains ? Bloody Noses ? Sleep disorders ? Various surgical procedures ? Ditto. It's a good all purpose resource. My copy cost me $1 at a yard sale, and it's been worth every penny, many times over ... even though it's slowly become a little dated since it was first published. It's recommended, and used copies can usually be found for a pittance.
