"This book is a quick collection of commonsense medical advice. The medically sophisticated will not find much new in it and will probably find it to be too simple. But even smart and knowledgeable people fall into some of the bad habits or make some of the foolish mistakes that Dr. Snyderman discusses in her book, like not eating a healthy diet, failing to get that annual physical, or not being entirely truthful with their doctor.
The central thesis of this book is that "health springs from living wisely." Dr. Snyderman presents a series of myths and truths about health care with the goal of giving the reader the knowledge necessary to make wise decisions about health care. It's worth a quick read for those intimidated by the health care system and perhaps a skim by others."
"This is an excellent book, a great start to debunking myths that have been with us for too many lifetimes. I recommend it to everyone. It's not one of those asinine (not to mention dangerous!) "cures the government is hiding" books, which are chock full of lies and deadly "advice." This is actual medical information from an actual medical doctor. Imagine that."
