Product Description
This book has been created for patients who have decided to make education and research an integral part of the treatment process. Although it also gives information useful to doctors, caregivers and other health professionals, it tells patients where and how to look for information covering virtually all topics related to pancreatitis (also Chronic relapsing pancreatitis), from the essentials to the most advanced areas of research. The title of this book includes the word official. This reflects the fact that the sourcebook draws from public, academic, government, and peer-reviewed research. Selected readings from various agencies are reproduced to give you some of the latest official information available to date on pancreatitis. Given patients' increasing sophistication in using the Internet, abundant references to reliable Internet-based resources are provided throughout this sourcebook. Where possible, guidance is provided on how to obtain free-of-charge, primary research results as well as more detailed information via the Internet. E-book and electronic versions of this sourcebook are fully interactive with each of the Internet sites mentioned (clicking on a hyperlink automatically opens your browser to the site indicated). Hard-copy users of this sourcebook can type cited Web addresses directly into their browsers to obtain access to the corresponding sites.

Comprehensive and Valuable by Paul Davis (Venice, CA United States)  5 Stars
March 10, 2008
Sufferers of pancreatitis and their families will want to have this book - it's a well-organized gateway to a broad range of seemingly-current sources of information about all aspects (one imagines) of the disease and its management.
Price is high for its "build quality", but that shouldn't stand in the way of anyone who wants to begin learning a tremendous amount about this illness.
