Chronic Illness And Workplace Discrimination; Some New Insights | |
| Resource for Chronic Illnesses There is a new book coming out that I had the honor of helping to edit. While it is written primarily for individuals with inflammatory bowel disease, and covers many other subjects, I was impressed with the section re: issues related to the workplace and employment law and I think at least Chapter 16 is applicable to anyone suffering a chronic illness and discrimination. I highly recommend the book. Since it is not scheduled to come out until May, 2003, some of this information may change. | |
| Name of Book: "Straight From the Gut: Living with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis" I don't think it will change at this point. | |
| Author: Cliff Kalibjian | |
| Publisher: Patient-Centered Guides, which is an subsidiary of O'Reilly and Associates. They are headquartered in Sebastopol, CA. | |
| Where it can be purchased: A number of CCFA people are very excited about the book and we hope that it works out that they can sell it but that hasn't been finalized yet. Check this link to www.ccfa.org. But it should be available to purchase anywhere like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or any bookstore. It's expected to be available beginning May 23. | |
| Price: The retail price will probably be $29.99 (it will be around 425 pages). |
