Summary: 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.
