Hepatitis is a serious infectious disease that often infects people without their knowing it. More common and contagious than Aids, hepatitis is easily spread especially among young adults. However, with an understanding of the disease it's easy to prevent. (20051001)

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Captioned photos and diagrams illustrate each book and both volumes have source notes, a list of organizations and Web sites, and a bibliography that will be useful for report writers, debaters, and parents of children diagnosed with these disfunctions."
-- Booklist (October 2001) (Booklist 20030301)

"These books provide the kind of information that a student may need either for an assigned research project or for personal enlightment and assistance. Highly Recommended"
--Library Media Connection, October 2005 (Library Media Connection 20020501)

"Volumes explore causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. New research techniques are described in detail. Each disorder is fully explained in non-technical terms."
-- School Library Journal (March 2003) (School Library Journal 20011001)

"Overall, the information...is more thorough and accessible than that in many books. Well-done and intuitively organized."
-- School Library Journal (May 2002) (School Library Journal 20010901)

"Primary-source quotes personalize the experiences. A solid addition to the mental-health sections."
-- School Library Journal (October 2001) (School Library Journal 20010401)

"Sheen covers its history, diagnosis, treatment, and solutions to some everyday problems associated with it. Black-and-white captioned photos are scattered throughout. A solid choice for students with a person interest or research requests on the topic."
-- School Library Journal (September 2001) (School Library Journal )

"Factful and useful books that approach their subjects as puzzlers for which great strides have been made in the last few decades in terms of diagnosis and treatment."
-- School Library Journal (April 2001) (School Library Journal )

By A Customer
This review is from: Diseases and Disorders - Hepatitis (Hardcover)
Hepatitis is a complicated disease, but this book explained it real clearly. It was an easy read, but interesting, and full of information. Anyone who knows someone with hepatiits, or who has it themselfs would get a lot out of this book.

By A Customer
This review is from: Diseases and Disorders - Hepatitis (Hardcover)
This book was clear, informative and very interesting. The information on how to lower your chances of getting hepatitis was especially good. My boyfriend has hepatitis, and now we both understand what's going on with him a whole lot better. I reccommend this book to everyone.
