The Scleroderma Book: A Guide for Patients and Families

Rating:
Summary: excellent and user-friendly summary
Review: This book's thorough coverage of the basics of scleroderma are something we patients have long been waiting to find on our bookstore shelves. For too long we've only been a short blurb in some general disease book with no more than a paragraph of information, some incredibly out-of-date. The gentle, readable style is enhanced by personal accounts of patient experiences, and one is left reassured and hopeful by Dr. Mayes' practical help on dealing with the disease today and confidence in the cure of tomorrow.

Summary: A greatly needed resource

Summary: Highly Recommended Reading For Scleroderma Patients
Review: This is a balanced and informative book, so much so that I am passing it on to my doctor with the recommendation that he tell all his scleroderma patients about it. I've learned a lot through the internet and by careful observation of what's going on with subtle physical changes we experience with scleroderma. This book does a great job of tying it all together in an easily understood presentation that's helpful as well for family and support groups.
