    As a diabetic for 13+ years, I found information in this book that I didn't know anything about. Or information that I had just "heard" of. This book can be very informative as a backup to what doctors and other healthcare professionals have to say. I highly recommend this book.

    Comprehensive, written in sections so that you can find what you want, and authoritative. I would recommend it for anyone with diabetes or anyone interested in diabetes.

    This large (nearly 500 pages) book covers pretty much all aspects of diabetes- diet, insulin, other meds, types of diabetes, complications, mental health, sexual health, and legal issues. It doesn’t cover most of it in great depth- if you’re looking for a deep discussion of diet and carb counting, for instance, you’ll want to seek out a book devoted just to that. But for a newcomer to diabetes, whether the reader is the diabetic or a family member, it’s a great starting place because it has such a wide scope. Not all sections will be pertinent to a reader, since it covers children and adults, hiring discrimination, sports, dealing with school etc but any diabetic will find a lot that does pertain to them. It’s written in a non-textbook style and easy to understand by non-medical personnel. While it didn’t tell me anything really new, I wish it had been available 28 years ago when I developed diabetes!
