This guide to treating arthritis combines two bestsellers in one, "Arthritis: What Really Works" and "Arthritis: What Exercises Really Work". Together they attempt to provide answers for every arthritis problem: conventional medicine, drugs, alternative therapies, surgery, self-help techniques, diet and 200 pages of illustrated exercise plans. Based on surveys of more than 1000 people with arthritis, these books eschew gimmicks and concentrate on options that really work because people have found them to work. The text answers such questions as: what drugs are available and which ones do what?; is surgery a good idea and what are the options?; should I treat myself through diet and if so what kind of diet?: Do copper bracelets work?; what alternative therapies have been found to work, and which ones don't?; and can I find relief through exercise, and if so what kind of exercise and in what form of programme?
