By far, one of the best! by Health and Parenting Advocate 5 Stars
August 27, 2005
This is one of the best books on rheumatoid arthritis that I've seen. I usually scan a few pages to get a feel for how the information is presented, and more times than not, I find it's either over my head, poorly organized, or both. Not the case with this book! There's an absolute wealth of information in this book that's both well-presented and easy to understand. Anyone suffering from this condition or who has relatives with rheumatoid arthritis will find the info in this book to be extremely helpful in not only coping with it, but fighting back to regain an active lifestyle. The authors Yu and Fischer did just a wonderful job with this book!!
