From Library Journal
"Not all of our bodies were infected with Lyme, but Lyme affected all our lives," writes Lang, who is the mother of a teenage Lyme victim. She combines anecdotal experiences with factual documentation to illustrate the financial, physical, and emotional costs of this chronic disease. An articulate proponent for medical consumerism, Lang emphasizes the need for funding to escalate research and educational activities. Cowritten with an expert in Lyme disease, her book thoroughly describes the illness's diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventative factors. While other recent titles such as Diana Benzala's Protect Yourself from Lyme Disease ( LJ 8/1/89) provide similar information, Lang's work is the most comprehensive. Well written and well documented, this is recommended for all consumer health collections.
