This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.

This book is full of information concerning diabetes. The information was practical and easy to understand. I would recommend it for anyone with Diabetes or their family members. (

Good basic information, seems to be oriented much more toward insulin-dependent diabetics than those who control the disease with oral meds and/or diet. I was hoping for info and advice somewhere in between the level of a support group and a physician, but did not find much beyond the basics here. Having dealt with diabetes for decades in close family members, I have a basic level of knowledge. I would recommend this book to folks who don't have a support group, don't get much information from their medical professionals, and who are starting the search for the kind of information that lets you manage your disease (instead of the other way 'round).
Well written, facts seem clear, opinions are duly identified. (

Requested this book for my mother. I read some, not all of this book. It should be VERY helpful to my mother. I would recommend it to family members of and people who have diabetes. (

What do nurses know about diabetes? Apparently, quite a bit! This information dense guide is a great resource to have handy if you, or someone close to you, has diabetes. It offers practical, authoritative advice about exercise, diet, medications, monitoring blood glucose levels, avoiding complications, and getting and giving help. It also discusses how diabetes interacts with emotions, and it has an entire chapter on diabetes during pregnancy. Overall, this is a terrific book! Highly recommended! (

One of the better books that I've come across since I've been diagnosed as a Type II DIabetic in October. Does a good job at bringing it down to the lay person's level without being condescending. My only gripe is that it does have what seems to be the required Tony Robbins 'esque motivational chapters at the end. I'm not a fan of the cheerleader routine. Bottom line, there's a lot of good stuff in here and I'll be keeping the book. (
