Heymischer Homeopathy: The Schmendrick's Guide to Remedying Yiddish Kvetches

Packed with cartoons, Hassidic tales, jokes, but also well researched medical information this "schmendrick's" guide to remedying a spectrum of kvetches is warm, funny, yet occasionally deep: a unique health care resource that is also an irresistible gift book offering.
