5.0 out of 5 stars BEST BOOK FOR IT'S INFORMATION ON THE SUBLECT, October 25, 1996
By A Customer
OUT OF ALL THE BOOKS THAT I HAVE READ ON THE SUBJECT OF CHEMICAL SENSITIVITIES, THIS BOOK IS BY FAR THE BEST IN PRINT. MOST OR ALL OF THE RESEARCH AND INFORMATION CONTAINED ABOUT TREATMENT AND AVOIDANCE ARE 100% CORRECT. I WOULD RECOMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE THAT HAS CHEMICAL SENSITIVIES OR KNOWS SOMEONE THAT DOES.
