"A fascinating book on a fascinating subject. Books published on allergies from India are rare. Dr. Singh has brought together a collection of well-known authors from India and other countries. The chapters are superbly divided and the book will be a treasure trove of allergy information from the Indian subcontinent. Doctors (particularly those who work in the field of allergy), scientists, and researchers will refer to this book for reliable and important information on allergy for several years."
