The Merck Manual of Medical Information: 2nd Home Edition (Merck Manual of Medical Information Home Edition)

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.

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.

What a great reference. I had the first edition but this second addition includes more information. Easy to read, find and understand.

This is a book every home should have. We've used it for years and just gave copies to two of our daughters.

The Merck Manual you sent me was a gift to my sister, who just graduated from nursing school. She loves it, and knows she will use it often in her nursing career. Thank you! jeanne
