You don't need a lot of medical jargon when it comes to understanding a diagnosis, but you do need accurate, detailed information from sources of the highest quality. This book provides just that: clear, concise descriptions of physical disease, mental disorders, surgical recovery, rehabilitation of all kinds, and even nutrition, all worded in a way a patient can understand. Considering that the big brother of this book is the essential resource at your doctor's elbow, it makes sense to have a Merck Manual on your shelf, too.
