informative,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Handbook of Multiple Sclerosis, Third Edition (Neurological Disease and Therapy) (Hardcover)
When I was incorrectly diagnosed with M.S. I bought this book. It is very informative about all the forms of M.S. and made me realize that I didn't have it. Further work up proved me correct.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Very very excellent service by Del Sol !!!!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Handbook of Multiple Sclerosis, Third Edition (Neurological Disease and Therapy) (Hardcover)
This review is mainly of the excellent service provided by Del Sol. I realized that I'd ordered the third, rather than the fourth, edition of this medical textbook. The seller, Del Sol, responded within hours of my email, caught the package before it shipped, and processed a refund. And also sent a gracious email confirming all this.This sort of experience is like eating a home-cooked meal! I just hope that this seller, DEL SOL, offers another title that I need. Excellent, excellent, excellent. By the way, The Handbook of Multiple Sclerosis is from a series of top-notch monographs on neurological disorders. The titles from that series tend to be sort of expensive, but their very high quality matches the price. The series is called "Neurological Diseases and Therapy". I'd recommend the latest edition of this book on MS highly, although since it was published a few years ago, one might choose to await the next edition. And I'd recommend buying it from Del Sol.
