This book begins by briefly explaining the causes of non-insulin-dependent diabetes, the usual symptoms, and methods of diagnosis. It then goes on to present general rules, such as regular exercise, eating right, and monitoring glucose levels. Written by Colvin (health writer and editor) with the assistance of Dr. Lane (medical director of the Nebraska Diabetes Center and associate professor at the U. of Nebraska), it presents readable information with a solid medical background. Includes an appendix with meal plans, a helpful glossary, and a list of associations and foundations that could provide more in-depth information.
