(4) YA Diseases & Disorders series. One common foreword and a short introduction specific to each volume lead to chapters defining the disorder and explaining diagnosis, treatment, and current research. The writing is straightforward and factual but not particularly engaging; some books offer occasional personal anecdotes or quotes from patients. Most of the accompanying photographs are generic or incongruous, some distractingly so. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Diseases & Disorders titles: Dementia, Childhood Obesity, Amnesia, Phobias, Anxiety Disorders, and Hodgkin's Disease.
