Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"This book ... provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review on the subject and underscores how interdisciplinary endocrinology is. This should make this book appealing not only to endocrinologists, but also to diabetologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, urologists, general and family medicine doctors, paediatricians and neuroscientists, to whom I wholeheartedly and fully recommend it. ... I strongly recommend this book to everyone interested in hypertension. It should become part of every university library." (Stefan R. Bornstein, European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Vol. 43 (4), April, 2013)
