Merck Manual of Medical Information - Home Edition
Type
website
Description
A publication from Merck geared for the layperson but still containing the same vital information about diseases, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. Users can perform a simple or advanced search, but clicking on results often leads to a long page where readers may need to use their browser's find functions to locate what they are looking
for. The book's table of contents is organized and detailed enough to be quite useful with eighteen sections devoted to various disorders (Mental Health Disorders, Skin Disorders, Immune Disorders, Cancer, etc.); sections on men's, women's, and children's health issues; information on Drugs, Accidents and Injuries, and Fundamentals (genetics, anatomy, etc.), and more.
