The Color Handbook is a compact yet complete guide to the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine and metabolic disorders. It combines the advantages of a short text book with those of an atlas, and provides thorough discussion of each disease supported by a wealth of images.

While reflecting the great advances in biochemical and radiological investigation, the authors emphasise that diagnosis of many endocrine conditions still relies ont he clinical acumen of physicians.

The book is of particular value to young physicians/residents, to trainee endocrinologists and to senior medical students.
