Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
From the reviews:"Part of a series titled Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, this is an overview of diabetes, including diagnosis, classification, pathophysiology, and complications. ... the book is geared to patients with diabetes. ... The short, readable chapters with their excellent and abundant references are the book's best feature. ... The book would benefit from more graphics, such as tables, figures, pictures, and summary boxes. This comprehensive overview of diabetes may be of interest to some patients with diabetes and some healthcare professionals." (Rebecca Brown, Doody's Review Service, February, 2013) Read more...
