This simple guide is more than as simple and even less than informative. It is written as if it was an article in a medical magazine in some ways but less informative than a wiki. The writing is repetitive and missing details of symptoms. It completely misses the human factor altogether.
This book was very informitive and easy to read. I believe I have a clearer picture oh what to expect.
It is ok at best.
