(4) YA Diseases & Disorders series. One common foreword and a short volume-specific introduction lead to chapters defining each condition and explaining symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and current research. The writing is straightforward but not particularly engaging. Some photomicrographs and charts are included, but most of the pictures and illustrations are generic (or even anatomically incorrect). Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Diseases & Disorders titles: Autoimmune Disorders, Hepatitis, Alzheimer's Disease, Lyme Disease, and Asthma.
