Description

This is the first book to deal exclusively with the causes, mechanisms and management of brittle or `difficult' insulin-dependent diabetes. It offers a detailed review of clinical, psychological and biochemical aspects in this important group of patients who place such an immense burden on hospital and family resources. Twenty-eight authors from the UK, continental Europe and the USA contribute chapters on brittle diabetes of known and unknown cause, discuss management problems and offer practical therapeutic advice. The book is a valuable reference text and manual for physicians, chemical pathologists, psychologists and psychiatrists, pharmacologists, general practitioners and diabetic-care nurses.
