Excellent as a basic reference for thyroid disease

This is an excellent book for basic thyroid disease information. I picked it up when I was first diagnosed and still turn to it as a reference. I especially love it after coming to realize what the subtitle might mean. "What a Harvard doctor wants you to know!" could be meant as a clever retort to all the misleading and disturbing books out there on thyroid disease. In particular, that nonsense stay-away-from one with the subtitle "What your doctor doesn't tell you...." (~ Rolling eyes). That this doctor, or any other reputable one, would take the time to pull together thyroid disease information that can be relied upon for being accurate and safe is something to be truly grateful for. I highly recommend this book.

Very informative and easy to understand

I found this book really informative and easy to read. I usually don't write reviews but had to take exception to a previous reviewer comment. The book does say that the disease can be easily diagnosed and then goes on to say many people are not diagnosed. This is just the point, if it's easy why are they not getting diagnosed? The book goes on to say that in many cases it's because the tests are simply not run and that it is often due to the cost involved. I happen to be particularly sensitive to this point and I couldn't agree more. If you don't have a lot of background on this topic or are not in the medical profession than I would suggest this book. It is written in plain speak and is very informative.
