The Human User Manual offers preventive healthcare suggestions for adults of all ages in a straightforward yet humorous way. The information presented is a compilation of guidelines found on the websites of a wide variety of legitimate healthcare organizations. Each chapter touches upon the major systems and conditions which need to be addressed as the human body ages. Glossary and Resource sections work to make all of the information contained in the book comprehensible and easy to research further. The author is not a medical professional, and the book is not going to appeal to everybody, but for those individuals interested in being educated healthcare consumers - either for their own benefit, or for the benefit of loved ones - it can be a good place to start.
