  • "Concise and readable reference not only explains the basic clinical science and anatomy behind endocrine function -- it also relates endocrine physiology to states of health and disease. Two important areas have been updated: the first pertains to hormonal regulation of bone metabolism and the second to hormonal aspects of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Topics covered will be tested on USMLE Step 1."
  • "This book provides comprehensive coverage of the fundamental concepts of hormone biological action. These concepts provide a solid foundation for understanding the physiologic mechanisms involved in neuroendocrine regulation of organ function. -- Résumé de l'éditeur."

  • "The Third Edition provides comprehensive coverage of the basic science and anatomy behind endocrine function. The concepts covered will provide a basis for understanding the physiologic mechanisms involved in the neuroendocrine regulation of organ function. With its focus on must-know principles, this book is the best review available for the USMLE Step 1 and the perfect reference for residents and fellows. Drawing on student feedback, this new edition is packed with self-study questions, learning objectives, and clinical examples. You will find outstanding diagrams covering the regulation of hormone release and action. Eight additional chapters discussing specific endocrine systems, detailing the specific hormone produced by each in the context of the regulation of its production and release, the target physiologic actions, and the implications of excess or deficiency. Chapters include learning aids such as Q & As, key concepts, clinical examples, diagram illustrations, and chapter objectives."
