The 5 volume Guide includes over 1,000 essays, ranging in length from 500 to 3,500 words each; 58 topics are new and 37 essays replace those from the previous edition. There are more than 400 photographs and drawings plus 644 sidebars and tables. The new edition introduces particularly current subject areas such as facial transplantation and avian influenza (bird flu). Plus, the Guide includes 44 "In the News" sidebars that evaluate recent media stories about ongoing research and experimental treatments.
These boxes both highlight the latest information and provide readers with a critical view of popular reports. The topics covered include the dangerous side effects of Ambien and other sleep aids, new treatments for Alzheimer's disease and breast cancer, and Iraq War-related diseases. Also noteworthy is the addition of a list of "Symptoms and Warning Signs" listing possible causes and a "Pharmaceutical List" surveying brand-name and generic drugs.
