Beautifully presented, and now in full colour, the sixth edition of Essential Endocrinology and Diabetes is fully up-to-date with the latest knowledge and concepts on the workings of the endocrine system.

The invaluable background on basic science and investigation, including new molecular techniques, provides the foundation for detailed discussion of the diagnosis and management of clinical endocrine disorders and diabetes. The teaching style and presentation has been strengthened throughout, and includes learning objectives and “recap” links at the beginning of each chapter that remind the reader of key findings and principles, while cross-referencing makes it easy to locate related information quickly and efficiently. There are also more case studies, with detailed answers applying theory to practice.

I purchased 3 different endocrinology books before this one. I had about decided that endocrinologists were practicing a black art-- but this book is very nicely written and very understandable for the medical student, physician or endocrinologist to be. Or in my case, the graduate Veterinarian. Not for the Amman, though one who is very persistent will probably find this informational. If you have the background this will open new worlds to your study of disease.
I am preparing for my phd thesis, and planning to buy a "textbook" as a framework guide for my introduction chapters. At first glance, I thought this book is kind of superficial. But as I go deeper and further, it is actually pretty well-covered especially the basics! Also, it has a fair amount of clinical-related content which is quite helpful for basic researchers to stay "up-to-date". Of course, it is not super detailed but definitely recommend as a handy reference book.
An in-depth look diabetes and endocrinology and easy to follow. I have already recommended to friends. The addition of desktop edition really enhances search ability.
Had to get this book for school. Contains good information but trying to use the reference section in the back is not always easy.
Great resource text
Good reference
Thank you.
It should be a problem with the publisher but I could not believe that they did not change the British English when selling this book in US! For example, a diagram is labeled with "Neurone" which is actually a "Neuron".
