Valuable specialized little book!

A highly valuable little book, not only for sufferers and their family members (and caretakers), but also for general medical practicioners, nurses, med students, and students of physiology, biology, anatomy, chemistry and other fields of science related to humans and human diseases. This little book is probably the most thorough to be found on this subject matter. It should be studied more commonly, WORLDWIDE, than it has been up to now. (Non-English speaking countries, med students, medical establishments, and researchers, in particular, should have discovered this valuable, concise, material by now, yet it remains a fairly rare little book. It might also be sent as a gift to those programs, institutions, and libraries abroad.) CHAPTERS: Definition, Morphology, Etiologies, Prevalence and Heredity, Clinical Presentation and Symptoms, Clinical Signs, Diagnostic Studies, Differential Diagnosis, Malignant Transformation, Classification, Anatomic Distribution (Peritoneal), Extra Abdominal/Extra Pelvic, Medications for Pain Control, Surgical Treatment, Infertility Hormonal Changes, Peritoneal Fluid Studies, Immunologic Factors, Abortion, The No Treatment Option, Medical Therapy, Surgery for Endometriosis Associated Infertility, Infertility-Superovulation, Assisted Reproduction, Recurrent Endometriosis, Summary, Bibliography. Highly recommended on this subject.
