5.0 out of 5 stars Nigel Lang. GP Practice Manager 20 Oct 2008
Format:Paperback
I confess when I first came across this book I approached it with some scepticism. Interestingly Dr Wilson is an Oxford PhD and his writing is from the standpoint of an intelligent enquiring patient rather than a clinician. Once into the book it becomes more and more interesting even covering medical breakthroughs in the last two years. What makes this book particularly useful is that it provides first class advice on practical preventitive measures for all to remain sound in body and mind. If patients were to read and follow the advice in this book I think that not only could they live significantly longer but also by not needing to come to the surgery they would save the NHS and tax payer countless millions; on the downside, I could be out of a job!

4.0 out of 5 stars Such a useful book to have to hand 3 Oct 2008
Format:Paperback
I have found this book to be excellent, not only to start reading from front to back but also to be able to dip into about any particular medical subject. Despite feeling well and fit enough for my age, one of my worries was nevertheless to find out about the effect of eating as much chocolate as I do. For a few minutes I started to get worried Dr.Wilson hadn't addressed the subject until I found it under cocoa. All's well, apparently, so long as in moderation as ever! There is a great deal of research that has gone into producing this well written and informative book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent all round 23 Sep 2008
Format:Paperback
A really practical and detailed guide that can be read end to end or just uesed as a reference book - some technical information but its never too complex or patronising in its delivery. Genuinely useful and excellent all round.
