Synopsis

This new edition is the most comprehensive reference on both the clinical and scientific aspects of diabetes, and is truly global in perspective with the inclusion of epidemiology and the nature and care of diabetes in different parts of the world.

Following a similar format to the previous editions, the primary philosophy of the book is to comprehensively cover the basic science of metabolism, linking this closely to the pathophysiology and clinical aspects of the disease.

A valuable resource for the whole diabetes community, the new edition offers:

• Fully revised, updated and expanded chapters
• Comprehensive coverage of all aspects of diabetes
• 116 extensively referenced chapters
• Full colour throughout
• Available in print and online

The International Textbook of Diabetes Mellitus, Third Edition is also available online via Wiley InterScience. With the flexibility afforded by the powerful search and navigation capabilities of Wiley InterScience, you can search the Textbook by subject, article and keyword. New and revised articles added regularly ensure that both professionals and students working within diabetes are kept abreast of rapidly developing areas such as genetics, treatment and epidemiology.

This excellent work is an essential reference tool for all members of diabetes and endocrine teams, medical students, medical schools and libraries, and provides a valuable resource for pharmaceutical companies and industries which have an interest in this important field.
