Medical Marijuana: Real-life Success Stories by Thomas O'Brien is a non-fiction medical book on the uses and benefits of medical marijuana. This book is not intended as a diagnostic tool or medical guide, as Thomas himself states in the beginning, but is instead an introduction to the benefits of marijuana on the health or disease of a patient. After a short introduction to why he wrote this book and how it is intended to be read, the book is divided into several chapters, each of which details the use of medical marijuana for certain illnesses or conditions and case studies of how it helped people. These include treatment in the case of Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Traumatic Brain Injury, Diabetic Neuropathy, Breast cancer or pain management in cancer itself, Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Irritable Bowel Disease: Crohn, severe or chronic back pain, Post-traumatic stress disorder, Gastroparesis and Fibromyalgia, pain management at end of life/death, and more.

Medical Marijuana is a fairly short and helpful book written for the average person who may not have any idea about the various uses of medical marijuana. The book is written very simply in an easy-to-understand language without any medical jargon which I appreciated. Thomas’ writing style is candid and direct and clears up quite a few misconceptions about marijuana that exist in society today. Although the use of marijuana for medical conditions is still a topic of debate in society, a book like this can go a long way towards educating people and providing information about it. This book contains case studies of people that Thomas has treated himself so I really liked reading about real-life examples like these. Overall, this is a good, educational book on medical marijuana.
