This book makes us realize that we have been ignorant of medicine. Even we do not know what we are not aware of the medicine. It is called that drinking coke is not healthy, but nobody really knows why we should not have some medicine with milk. We also do not really know whether we should eat medicine again or not, after throwing up, and whether there exists false medicine without effects. Furthermore, we do not know why the names of medicine are different even though they are the same kinds, what the diverse colors and shapes of pills mean, why we should not throw away leftover medicine, and so on. This book provides us with the introduction to medicine which is somewhat unknown to both adults and children. Moreover, the book also categorizes medicine by dosage forms or symptoms.

The writer of this book is an actively working pharmacist, intending to spread the right information and knowledge about medicine. The writer wrote the book by strictly selecting realistic questions and information we must know based on the experience facing children in the field through a lot of lectures.

The illustrations of this book are very simple and easy to understand. Furthermore, the contents are put in the right places, so that young children can easily understand even if they are difficult. It also applies to the human figure. The writer only emphasizes the parts we have to understand and deleted unnecessary parts. Therefore, readers can simply and easily understand complicated human structure.

The first part consists of QnA about medicine, and the second part explains the medicine by dosage forms. The third part introduces medicine by symptoms we commonly go through. It is almost like a mini encyclopedia containing all the information about medicine. Readers can choose which part they want to read first, and they can also skip some parts. It is totally fine to start reading from any page.
