    Having been to Mayo Rochester, I was thrilled to get this book. It is MASSIVE. There is so much good info in here it’s hard to know where to start. There are detailed illustrations of all of the body’s systems, pictures of various skin disorders, instructions on how to deal with all types of illnesses and symptoms, info on healthy eating and diet, and info on various drugs used to treat a myriad of ailments. This book should be in EVERY home.
