Merck Manual of medical info. 2nd home edition:
my cousin had the book and i found it interesting and i bought it. pretty interesting reading.
Good home reference:
Very informative book. Easy to read & understand. However, after purchasing this book, I found that all of the text (that I have searched for so far) is available online also- FOR FREE! If I had known this, I wouldn't have purchased it for sure. But still a good reference nonetheless.
If you're sick in bed or stuck on the toilet often, etc, then just get the book for reading (staring at computer screens all day messes you up anyway).
Price was great.
review:
real laymen terms. easy to understand. not as detailed as i expected, but got me on the right track for information. highly recommended for beginning medical or non-medical home use.
Merck medical manual 2nd edition:
