The UXL Encyclopedia of Diseases and Disorders, Volume 1-5, is devoted to
helping younger students and general readers understand the nature of diseases and disorders of every type, including communicable diseases, genetic disorders, common conditions, and injuries.
This book is a collection of more than 200 entries on diseases, from avian flu, to
cystic fibrosis, to warts. The entries start with a definition section and
highlight the basic facts of the disease to explain the causes, symptoms, and
treatments. Other sections give a more detailed description, talk about
demographics, and discuss the future of the disease, for example, if any new
treatments are under development or if the disease is becoming more or less
prevalent.The UXL Encyclopedia of Diseases and Disorders uses everyday language when possible, and explains medical terms as they arise. Terms are also defined in Words to Know sidebars within entries, and a collected Words to Know section is included in the beginning of each book.Entries are designed to instruct, challenge, and excite less-experienced students, while providing a solid foundation and reference for students already captivated by medicine.
