Abstract
The literature on the effects of hormones on bone and calcium metabolism is so large that it is impossible to review it adequately. All this paper will attempt to do is to report selected papers which appear to the writer to shed significant light upon the action of hormones on calcium and bone metabolism in man. Parathyroid hormone and calcitonin have been deliberately omitted.
