Review:

"Written for the high school student, but also appropriate for the undergraduate student, the volumes of the Diseases & Disorders series contain well-researched text and numerous full-color illustrations to assist in bringing to life topics that can be hard to understand if one is not currently facing them. These scholarly yet accessible volumes are a valuable addition of new research on topics that change frequently for any young adult collection or community college collection."
--American Reference Books Annual, 2012
