About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:
“This book provides a foundation for understanding and treating patients with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, the metabolic syndrome, and the complications associated with these disorders. … This would be most useful as a reference for medical students, residents, and primary care physicians. This second edition is an improvement upon the first edition, including as it does new medications and details of treatment of special populations such as pregnant patients, mental health patients, geriatric patients, AIDS patients, and dialysis patients.” (Colleen Flynn, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2011)
“The book presents somewhat unusual, but very practical and progressive form of presentation. … some approaches to reduce the risk in diabetic patients (glycemic and lipid control, thrombosis prevention etc.) and problems of diabetes in special populations (children, women, geriatric patients, postoperative patients) are also treated witha great care. In the front of each chapter appears a very helpful overview of individual sections and, at the end there is also a very helpful list of supplementary reading.” (Endocrine Regulations, June, 2011)
“This is the second edition of a comprehensive text on diabetes and associated syndromes. … The tables on mechanisms of action of oral agents, insulin preparations and timing, and lipoprotein abnormalities and therapeutic choices are exceedingly useful. Important clinical trials of glycemic, lipid, and blood pressure management in diabetes are comprehensively covered. … Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, and the Metabolic Syndrome may appeal to a variety of health professionals who care for persons with these disorders.” (John A. Colwell, Journal of the American Medical Association, July, 2011)
