A good overview book for people with diabetes and also health care professionals. It handles all sides of diabetes and offers some advice on how to deal with the disease on physical and emotional level.

Thasnkfully... not a ~by the numbers~ cheerleading trope of T1D.

A British Psychologist (T1D herself) Nash offers basic (Cognative Behavioral Techniques) to examine and short-circuit beginner D issues and challenges. A tangible mistake, Nash wrote for the broadest D audience possible. Had she stuck to T1 specific problems, or issues for seriously experienced D, the book would have been unique and significant.

NASH shines brightest is several arena.
