Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Diabetes mellitus is the third most common chronic disorder of childhood, and most books on the subject of paediatric endocrinology do not give sufficient emphasis to this clinical problem.

This book provides a practical approach to managing endocrine problems in children; the coverage of each disorder reflects its clinical importance. Thus there is generous coverage of diabetes and growth problems.

The material is organized so that it can be referred to at a moment's notice. Advice on the principles of management are backed up by overviews of epidemiology, pathophysiology, investigations, and differential diagnoses. Case histories are accompanied by self assessment questions at the end of each chapter, and controversial issues and 'when to refer to a specialist centre' are highlighted for each chapter. The material is well illustrated with photographs and line diagrams.


  • Well illustrated with clinical photographs and line diagrams

  • Detailed information is given on the common endocrine disorders in children, including diabetes and growth problems

  • The book is practical and didactic, and aimed at general hospital paediatric units
