Audible Editor Reviews
imagining exposure to deadly contagion or being victimized by medical
malpractice. Although not possessed of a background in medicine, author
Ian Landau has painstakingly researched and outlined the direst details
any hypochondriac could hear. Rare diseases and their bizarre symptoms
are described in this efficient guidebook in creepy detail. Pictures
are provided for oomph. Landau also provides clear confirmation that
some diseases remain untreatable, and that others are yet to be identified.
The data here provokes real laughs, nervous giggles, and downright horror.
The title The Hypochondriac's Handbook: Syndromes, Diseases, and Ailments
that Probably Should Have Killed You by Now startles the listener awake.
Narrator Robert Blumenfeld walks the line between funny and terrifying.-
Publisher's Summary
Sure, everyone gets sick sometimes, but do you realize that plenty of
those folks also die slow, unpleasant deaths from diseases that stumped
even the experts at top-notch (still privately run) hospitals? That's
right: There are plenty of illnesses that even physicians have never
heard about. Nodding Disease, Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, and Cutaneous
Horn (yes, you grow a horn) are all featured here in pithy, energetic
entries. You won't have to worry about socialized medicine if you have
this book - even if your doc could see you within a month, you might
die due to his ignorance.
Lucky for you and your loved ones, Ian Landau (who has no medical training
but is a hell of a researcher) includes descriptions of each disease
Background and history, how to diagnose yourself and others, suggested
treatments, prevention methods. The book is not for the faint of heart,
as it probably could cause cardiac arrest. (And you ain't coming back
from that without Ian's help.)
