Books by Patients for Patients
The Thyroid Sourcebook
by M. Sara Rosenthal Ph.D. Lowell House Los Angeles 2000.
Sometimes the best person to ask about a medical condition is
someone who has suffered through it themselves. M. Sara Rosenthal’s
book is much like that. A lay person who is a veteran of thyroid
problems, a sociologist and a bioethicist Rosenthal has faced many
of the same questions that thyroid patients need to have answered,
with the conviction of one who has been cured. Ms Rosenthal’s
book is both well-researched and based on the advice of thyroid
experts, as well as personal experience. This book is a great bridge
between physician and patent, and is a comfort for those who may
be intimidated by more clinical resources. (293 pgs. With an appendix
of thyroid organizations) 4th edition.(Available through TFA.)
The Thyroid Cancer Book
by M. Sara Rosenthal, Ph.D. Sarahouse Press Canada 2003
Rosenthal’s second thyroid book expands thyroid self-help
by focusing specifically on thyroid cancer. Rosenthal uses science,
psychology, and a good dose of humor to guide those with thyroid
cancer through their dilemma. She also includes low iodine recipes
for those about to undergo radioiodine treatments. As a thyroid
cancer survivor, Rosenthal has an intimate knowledge and a comforting
understanding that should help anyone who may be anxious about their
condition. (184 pgs.)
