Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book explores the idea that rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is caused by a urinary tract infection as a result of Proteus bacteria. … Medical students, rheumatology fellows, rheumatologists, and scientists will benefit from this book … . This is an easy-to-read and informative book, with good charts and tables, on the relationship between Proteus bacteria and RA.” (Richa Gupta, Doody’s Review Service, April, 2012)
