| Publisher Description: This publication demonstrates and illustrates best practice that allows poliomyelitis survivors to live with dignity and independence. It shows impressively how poliomyelitis and the long-term late effects have evolved over the past number of decades and how personal counselling, the development of self-help groups and a targeted reduction of information deficits in the population continues. The majority of information regarding poliomyelitis and the Post-polio-myelitis Syndrome available on the world market is quite often expensive and sometimes difficult for the uninitiated to fully understand. The main reason for this is that it is mostly initiated and written by members of the medical profession and their usage of general professional medical scientific terminology in their explanations. The main goal of the authors was to present this documentation using plain common language where possible, especially with the aim of making it understandable for an uninitiated poliomyelitis clientele within the wide range of existing information deficits, and further, to make this booklet obtainable at a reasonable price, therefore making it available for a wider public. |
