Description: This book is intended as a problem-based tool and self-assessment guide for medical students, residents, and others wishing for a review of clinical endocrinology. Basic Endocrinology: An Interactive Approach will provide a solid foundation of clinical endocrinology; it can be used as a concise core textbook, or as a supplemental self-test and review. The author has succeeded in providing the right level of information without overloading the reader with details and at the same time without being too simplistic. Designed in a "frequently asked question" (FAQ) format to aid the reader in assimilating the material. Designed as a problem-based interactive text, asking the student "Why?" rather than just restarting material from lectures. Approximately one-third of the book consists of review questions, to help the reader retain material and to prepare for standardized examinations. Pertinent diagrams and relevant clinical photographs accompany all questions. All clinical questions are derived from actual patient cases.
