Description
Do you worry that spots are cancerous That headaches are caused by tapeworm larvae burrowing into your brain If so, you're almost certainly a hypochondriac. This hilarious book shows, that hypochondria is the only sane response to modern life - an illness in itself, and part of a noble tradition of neurosis stretching back thousands of years.
