Diabetes cover

The book explains the underlying pathophysiology of the disease and covers in detail all its main forms and complications. Separate chapters consider the range of treatment options, together with summaries of key clinical trials. Coverage also includes epidemiology and classification, as well as diagnosis, screening, limiting risk, and other aspects of disease management and patient care. The book is illustrated throughout by explanatory diagrams, graphs, tables, and photos.

Key Features:

1. Builds on its strength of having excellent content on long-term management of hyperglycemia by including pancreas and islet transplantation.

2. Contains invaluable information on glucose monitoring for healthcare professionals interested in diabetes.

"It is not a large book, it only spans 244 pages but don’t be fooled by this size; this book is packed with highly relevant information, easy to read and very clinically focussed."

Dr. Harry Brown

"This short reference book is well-organized, has little to no redundancy, and no extraneous chapters or information. The tables and diagrams are high-yield, very clear, and useful. Since this book has a combined American and European authorship, including both the SI units and U.S. customary units is unique and will appeal to a wider audience."
