Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book is the New 10th edition (2002). Please note that the book is the same but the title has changed from Understanding Insulin Dependent Diabetes to Understanding Diabetes. The material found in the 28 chapters has been updated and covers all aspects of diabetes concerns. Included are two new chapters, one featuring type 2 diabetes and the other featuring pregnancy and diabetes. It is written at a level easily understandable to the young adolescent and his/her family.
