Customer ReviewsRating: 5 out of 5 The Site Collector Knowing HOW TO FIND HEALTH INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET helped author Bruce Maxwell to accept a diagnosis and a treatment plan. Then he went off surfing for the rest of us until he had identified over 600 online sources as the most dependable, reputable and up-to-date for large amounts of free, reliable and useful information. And he arranged all of his net finds according to whether they help with DIY information searching, such as through the Internet Sleuth health indexes database; or with specific conditions, diseases, or illnesses; or with prevention and treatment, such as Alternative medicine, the Center for Food Safety & Applied Nutrition, the National Oral Health Information Clearinghouse, the Needy Meds, and the RxList of capsule and tablet codes when you have unidentified medicines on hand; or with wider relevant issues, such as environmental, occupational and rural health. So it takes a caring, serious writer to put together such a straightforward book with the same patient commitment as Tom Ferguson's HEALTH ONLINE, John Grohol's THE INSIDER'S GUIDE TO MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES ONLINE, and MOSBY'S MEDICAL SURFARI.
