5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for diagnosing symptoms, March 10, 2001
This review is from: The Medical Advisor: The Complete Guide to Alternative & Conventional Treatments : Home Edition (Paperback)
I have several other medical books, but as far as diagnosing symptoms, this is the best. You can find an entire chart for arm pain or something like that, then you can check out possible diseases. With other books, you need to know what you have first. I also like how the book is set up. You read about the symptoms and which ones require medical attention, then you read about possible causes, and cure options -- both traditional and alternative. I also use this book to check my medications, since there is an extensive list in the back. And I love the pictures of the body in the back -- which aided me in realizing I probably had a swollen gland and not a cancerous lump. I wish they would do an updated version of this book. Colleagues at work are forever asking me to "bring in your book," to diagnosed their families. It's must-have home reference. (I need to add that I have the hardback version, and I am assuming the paperback is the same.)

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have!, January 13, 2000
This review is from: The Medical Advisor: The Complete Guide to Alternative & Conventional Treatments : Home Edition (Paperback)
I bought this book for my sister-in-law for Christmas 3 years ago and have been wanting one for myself ever since. This book is the most informational medical book for non-medical persons I have ever used.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great home reference book, November 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Medical Advisor: The Complete Guide to Alternative & Conventional Treatments : Home Edition (Paperback)
This book is a great resource for home medical assessment, i.e., figuring when and when not to go to the doctor, and how to treat and supplement a doctor's care.
