Official Patient's Sourcebook on Celiac Disease A Revised and Updated Directory for the Internet Age

Originally created for physicians and other healthcare providers, this Sourcebook has been revised and updated for non-professionals wishing to pursue self-directed research. To make advanced sources more accessible to a general audience, each chapter provides background information, glossaries, specific references and directory information. The title of this book includes the word "official." This reflects the fact that the sourcebook directs you to advanced public, academic, government, and peer-reviewed research. Selected readings from various research agencies are reproduced to give you some of the latest official information available. Why "Internet age"? All too often, Internet search engines will display hundreds of Web site listings which are mostly irrelevant or redundant. Internet users are left to wonder where the relevant and official information is, and how to obtain it. Since only the smallest fraction of information is even indexed in search engines, a non-systematic approach often leads to frustration and disappointment. This sourcebook directs you to the official information that you would not likely find using popular Web directories. Beyond Web listings, in many cases the sourcebook reproduces brief summaries or abstracts of available reference materials. This is simply one of the most advanced and comprehensive directories available to Internet users. Book jacket.Icon Group International, Inc.
