This review is from: The Official Patient's Sourcebook on Hemochromatosis (Paperback)
WOW! sooo much info in one book! Well worth the money. Some info is a little dated, but if you call the organizations, they'll send you updated info. User friendly. Not only used for hemochromatosis. Listings for different medical conditions also found. Good for all levels of knowledge. **** book!

This review is from: The Official Patient's Sourcebook on Hemochromatosis (Paperback)
Its about time there that a technical book about Hemochromatosis was available. I found that this book was both scientific and extremely readable. This is by far the best text i have read on the topic.
