Halstead, M.D., Managing Post-Polio, 2nd Edition, provides a comprehensive overview on dealing with the medical, psychological, vocational, and many other challenges of living with post-polio syndrome. Written by over 15 authorities in their respective fields, the majority of whom are polio survivors themselves, Managing Post-Polio distills and summarizes the wealth of information presented at conferences and published in the medical literature over the past 20 plus years.
