A MUST HAVE

After getting this book from the Library and reading it cover to cover, I realized I needed to own it. It was a huge eye opener. I did not know very much about Mad Cow Disease and this is a great reference, little, concise and straight to the point book. I know I will read it again, it made such an impression on me...And I will consult it when people have questions about some unexplained maladies, like Alzheimer's, or muscle weaknesses, or behavioral changes... After reading this book, or just becaming aware of the intricacies of Mad Cow Disease for that matter, you will never look at Life, People or Illness the same way. Your level of awareness, definitely, skyrockets. We don't know what the future holds, and "forewarned is forearmed".
