In this revised edition of Clinical Pediatric Endocrinology (2005), Brook (emeritus, pediatric endocrinology, U. College London) and colleagues in the UK and US treat clinical aspects of congenital and acquired endocrine disorders while updating the understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in them. In 23 chapters, international specialists in the field treat the genetic and hormonal basis of disorders of hypothalamic-pituitary functioning, their assessment and treatment, and management of diabetes, obesity, and the delayed effects of childhood cancer treatment. Authors also address ethical issues regarding gender assignment in sex development disorders, growth hormone treatment for short stature, and manipulation of puberty in girls with severe learning disabilities. The volume includes clinical algorithms, growth charts for specific growth syndromes, and b&w and color clinical images. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
