This review is from: The Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center 100 Questions and Answers About Parkinson Disease (Paperback)

Dr. Lieberman's book was the second this reviewer picked up after receiving the diagnosis of PD. It is packed with information, covering everything from the early symptoms to the late-course disabilities, the whole range of medications, surgeries, exercises, and possible alternative treatments. While the title suggests a bulleted list of Frequently Asked Questions, the book is actually a densely packed treatise of short sections and chapters that can be read together or separately or in any desired order. Some sections are better than others, but all are loaded with whatever information is available. Of course, some of the answers are still missing, awaiting further discoveries.

A practical book that can be used as a reference work or a manual to trouble-shoot problems as they arise. The book is easy to read in spite of much technical terminology, which, however, is usually well explained. It's directed not at the patient alone, but also at families and caregivers.

Author Lieberman is highly qualified to write this book. Sometimes the writing felt a little rushed, with small lapses of grammar and style, but these did not detract from the valuable storehouse of information. I wouldn't exactly say I enjoyed reading it (who wants to look a chronic, progressive illness in the face?) but I can certainly recommend it. Reviewed by Louis N. Gruber.
