As recently diagnosed person with MS, i have found this one of the best books i have read on the subject so far. It is very easy to understand and is a great book to have on hand for friends and family who are finding it difficult to come to terms with your diagnosis let alone understand it. It has lots of the information you need but puts it across in a way that that is not full of posh terminology. It is to the point, factual and most importantly, simple. Just what is needed in difficult and confusing circumstances. I found it in a secondary school library, which is probably why it is so easy to understand, but decided to buy it as i found it invaluable when it came to explaining MS to someone who has no knowledge of it.
