This guide to bodily symptoms and what to do about them includes 19 chapters covering 400 symptoms and 180 common conditions.

Written in a lively style, the book is valuable in its coverage of less serious symptoms.

Provides a great visual into oneself when not feeling right. The title says it all and more people should listen to their bodies, rather than go to a doctor every time their nose is running. Some of our best doctors are: sunshine, water, laughter and exercise as well as ourselves.
