Could it be an allergy? is one of the questions people most commonly ask their doctors. With an increasing variety of symptoms being attributed to allergies, the question is becoming more and more frequent and important. What can sufferers and carers do if they suspect an allergy? 

Could it be an Allergy? is written for the layperson by a leading specialist in the field. Carefully laid out, each section includes case histories, questions and answers on the particular allergy, and advice on what to look for and how to address it. A directory of support and help groups throughout Ireland and Britain is included. 

'This is a very sensible book that explains clearly the clinical problems related to allergy. A book to be recommended.' Professor Jonathan Brostoff, Director, Centre for Allergy Research and Environmental Health, University College London.
