Ellenberg & Rifkin's Diabetes Mellitus Theory and Practice

"The pathophysiology of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus and their complications are covered. Many new chapters have been added to reflect the advances in either scientific or clinical developments (topics such as incretin hormones, engineered insulin-producing cells, and endothelial dysfunction, for example, stand alone). The spectrum of topics starts with the expected basic pathophysiology and extends to detailed discussions of each diabetic complication and special clinical challenges presented by diabetic patients. The usefulness of this book lies in its unique format: each topic is addressed by at least two chapters so that scientific and clinical discussions are treated separately and concisely and access to information is efficient."

"There are other major textbooks in the field of diabetes mellitus. Because it treats both clinical and scientific topics equally and skillfully, this one is ideally suited to stand alone as a sole source for the typical diabetologist. In a rapidly changing field of study and clinical management, this updated edition is highly valuable."
