Medical Management of Diabetes Mellitus

An authoritative commentry by over fifty North American physicians on the latest treatment strategies for type I and Type II diabetes mellitus. The format of the book is logical, covering the various aspects and challenges faced in the clinical environment.The "Special Settings" section was of particular value.Starting with a broad overview of the disease in the year 2000 and beyond, the text shifts to canvassing the diagnosis, treatment and complications associated with this increasingly common disease.The use of diagrams and tables aided digestion of the topics and the overall format of the piece in the hardback form was of high quality.
