This thick, hardback book goes through every prescription drug on the market and describes how it will affect the body in virtually every way. This book often has more information than the newer "pill" books have. What I like about this book also is that it describes what the drug "classes" are, such as analgesics, antiarthritic, benzodiazepines, sex hormones, muscle relaxers and penicillins, to name a few. The first section of the book describes common illnesses and how drugs can help them, as well as how to use the book. Make it an addition to your library of helpful health books.

This book is written so well I have read it many times. It is set in the depression era and brings you to that time with laughter and tears. Billy C. CLark describes small town living along the Big Sandy River which was once the cities life. I think people of all ages would love this heart felt book.
