Parkinson's Disease Bewertungen

An indispensable guide... written in plain, easy to understand language that clearly delineates the authors' message without talking down to the reader... highly recommend. -- Auggie Moore Large Print Reviews 2006 Just what its title promises: a comprehensive, affordable, up-to-date book to support readers moving through the stages of this disease. The authors are straightforward and honest, but the tone is at all times compassionate. -- Lyn H. Crispino, MLS, AHIP Consumer Connections 2007 The book's organization is tidy without being overwhelming and each page manages to pack in a wealth of information in a focused manner. The tone is conversational and the many topics explored are extremely beneficial to anyone who has PD or is taking care of someone who has this illness. -- Norm Goldman BookPleasures.com 2009
