Product Description

Traditionally, endocrinology textbooks have been either short notes or multi-author, multi-volume monster, all of which present clinical material last and often only briefly. Endocrinology is different and used real cases to lead readers into the text and then describes the biochemistry, physiology, and anatomy they need to understand the case. The user-friendly design utilizes colour-coded boxes to highlight the basic scientific and clinical material required and also to describe the latest more advanced evidence. Typical clinical cases are included, along with more idiosyncratic cases to capture attention and highlight the cross-disciplinary nature of medicine. Endocrinology is the first book to address the requirement for integrated basic science and clinical practice, to encourage problem-based learning, and to lead readers deep into the subject. Unique benefits: * integrates basics sciences and clinical practice * features more real clinical cases than any similar book to emphasize problem-based learning * comprehensive and yet approachable * includes a comprehensive range of questions and answers to test understanding

Comprehensive and nicely set out
A good comprehensive overview focusing on relevant endocrinology with good cases. Too many useless boxes and in places lacks on text detail. Overall good book, that will last any medical student though their education
