Customer Reviews

The best

I bought this book for a friend who was recently diagnosed with MS. At that point, neurologists and specialized MS-nurses are constantly all over you. This irritates my friend especially when her questions are not answered quickly and fully. That is where the book comes in. My friend says the book is better than her neurologist and the MS-nurse put together.

An important consumer's handbook

The brand-new third edition of Rosalind Kalb's classic guide, Multiple Sclerosis: The Questions You Have, The Answers You Need, fully updates medical information with the latest details, covering a range of topics in a handy question-and-answer format which makes it easy to understand MS management. Each chapter also includes a list of references and recommended reading, along with a glossary of terms and resource list, making Multiple Sclerosis an important consumer's handbook with readily-accessible details for concerned non-specialist general readers.

This is THE book you will ever need

Awesome coverage of all the areas from the basics, to employment and insurance issues, to latest research to many other things.I bought 2 other books along with this. But after reaing this one, I returned the other two books and it made them redundant.If you need to buy just one book (even if you have the money to buy 10 books on MS), this is the ONLY book you will ever need.

ms information

THIS IS AN EXCELLENT INFORMATION BOOK THAT EVERYONE WITH MS SHOULD OWN. VERY INFORMATIVE WITH ALL THE LATEST INFORMATION.

Excellent book, very informative question and answer format.

I have had M.S. for about two years. I waslooking for a book to answer specific questions I had. This book did a great job. The format of the book is arranged in the question and answer style. You can look up a question in the index, go to the page identified and get the information without reading the entire book. This is a great advantage in gaining information on specific problems associated with a very complicated disease.
