After checking this book out of the libary several times, I am finally buying it. I have found it to one of the best books of migraine I have read. The authors recognize the great extent to which migraine can affect people's lives. They offer up-to-date and useful information on how to deal with this serious malady, including both drug and drug-free approaches.

In my experience, the best book about migraines (although now a bit old). Mostly, I have found all migraine books to provide the same information - what foods to avoid, what are common triggers, etc. This one, written by someone who has had extensive personal experience with migraines, gives much the same information but also provides background and possible explanations for why the things she has found, work for her. For myself, knowing the "why" is at least as important for knowing the "what."

It was also encouraging to read her own experiences. Often, I get frustrated with the books written by doctors, who have experience with patients, but don't actually experience the intolerable agony of migraine. Reading a book by someone who has gone through it all helps. Her review of the medical literature was important as a start for my own attempts to understand what is going on in my head when it feels like it is about to explode.
