The Book is entertaining! Easy to Read!

Mr. Bruss, a california licensed clinical laboratory scientist, has authored a 10 page, 10 chapter paperback book about ten important historical figures and their medical histories. In each chapter, the historical significance of the person is followed by; a discription of the symptoms, historic and current prognostic information, related roles for laboratory testing, and comments about possible future significance of the disorder. The book is an entertaining "easy read". If the reader enjoys history and clinical laboratory science, the $12 price is "good value for the money". An expanded version could be a fine text for a general education college course related to history and medicine.
