AB This volume arises from the conference on Chlorpropamide and Diabetes Mellitus, supported jointly by the New York Academy of Sciences and Charles Pfizer and Company, held in New York in September, 1958. It is a collection of sixty-eight articles written by more than one hundred seventy authors and defies condensation in a review of usual length and substance. Dr. Charles H. Best has accomplished this as well as it can be done in a six-page summary at the end of the book.The contributions are arranged in three groups. The first is concerned with pharmacological studies, the second with metabolic research, and the third with clinical observations. The subject matter is not confined wholly to the consideration of chlorpropamide but includes other sulfonylurea compounds and, as is proper, related data about insulin. This is particularly true of the first two sections.This publication is, of course, valuable for the investigator
