Multiple Sclerosis: The Questions You Have, the Answers You Need

Summary: This is THE book you will ever need
Review: 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.

Summary: Best MS Reference Book
Review: I was diagnosed nearly two years ago, and this book has been a very valuable reference. I keep going back to it again and again as I have questions, and despite other reviewers' comments, I felt it was up to date when I purchased it. Perhaps these comments were based on an older edition? I also found the index to be very user-friendly. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone with MS.

Summary: Old Answers for New Questions
Review: Unfortunately, a lot of this information is out of date -- and even if it wasn't, it's some of the answers to some of the questions you might have, presented in a sometimes easily accessible but sometimes difficult to access fashion. Some of the contributions are far more useful than others.
I appreciate the fact that Rosalind Kalb has been a tireless advocate for people with MS, and I hope she updates this book (with a better format) -- but still I wish there were some MS "advocates" out there who weren't taking drug company money.
