This is a very thorough book about Lupus. It starts with the history of the disease and covers everything, like symptoms, diet, lab tests, effects on body systems, medications and their effects, conventional treatments, alternative treatments, and so much more. My only complaint is that it is written in "medicalese". I'm an R.N. and still some of it went over my head. Dr. Wallace is the "guru" of Lupus and everything he writes about it is wonderful. This is an extremely thorough book, but a little bit "up there". I'm not sure who the intended audience was for this, but it obviously is not Jane & John Q. Public. I've enjoyed it though, because it's a little "pocket rocket" (small and has everything n it).

This is the 3rd book that I have read from Dr.Daniel Wallace. It is easy to read, straight forward.
If you have Systemis Lupus this is one of the books to read.
This book is small and compact with loads of information to read.

One hundred pages of pure Lupus. Concise, clear and well written, this book blends academic facts with clinically relevant information. This book makes navigating the complex world of lupus an easy task both for the primary physician and rheumatologist alike.
