I struggled to read this book as I have a complete fear of hospitals but I kept reading as I was interested in some of the conditions covered. The author came across as very authoritative and knowledgeable.
I didn’t like the author’s blunt use of some descriptive language but I realise the words are widely used and most will not notice. I have strict personal views on the use of words.
Christie’s knowledge is detailed and deep. The book will be eye opening to a wide range of readers who aren’t super sensitive like me.
I wouldn’t recommend the book to anyone who like me is hyper sensitive and nervous. It really has heightened my fears of hospitals. I like to read at night but this give me nightmares.
