Description

This aims to provide a comprehensive account of the inherited metabolic diseases, fully revised for this second edition. 18 contributors from the UK and Europe have covered major developments including peroxisomal and respiratory chain disorders. The text is concise and, with the use of the bibliography to such important practical aspects as diagnosis and treatment, it should be a useful alternative source of reference.
