by Rebecca Skloot
Amazon Price: $14.90
Customer Review: Who would have thunk a science based book could be so exciting, I can hardly take the time to put it down to write this. Wrapping mystery with human interest, and a huge amount of science--Skloot has a winner in this book. If the library doesn't have a copy available--buy one. You don't want to wait to read this.

Customer Review: This book is such a great read. Even if you have not ever been diagnosed with Hypothyroid, you should read this book. Especially if you haven't.
The information in the book is eye opening. Now I know for sure why I feel the way I do and know why certain people in my family died.
I have switched my meds to desiccated thyroid hormone as indicated in the book. It's just a month and I already see an improvement from my Synthroid.
This book may have saved my life.

Customer Review: First off, amazon is selling this at a very good price. I got ripped at my campus bookstore for this. I wish I'd waited to get this here. This is just something I picked up as a supplement to my A&P class. It looks very detailed and I can't wait to start coloring it. It is a very big book! There is a lot of information in here.
