Summary

The increasing incidence of type 2 diabetes in an ever younger age group seems likely to exacerbate the epidemic that we are already experiencing. Hospital doctors and those in community practice are now faced more than ever with the need for earlier diagnosis in order to prevent organ damage and ensure adequate control of the disease and long-term management. Written by an international team of distinguished authors, Textbook of Type 2 Diabetes offers comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the subject area, from epidemiology and diagnosis to therapeutic approaches and worldwide demographic issues.
