AB This volume is composed of essays on a wide variety of topics pertaining to clinical endocrinology. No attempt is made to include all aspects of this vast subject which is the province of a formal textbook. The quality of writing is variable but generally good; the authors are, with few exceptions, recognized authorities in their fields and have contributed extensively by personal research.This book is of sufficient merit that medical libraries and all specialists in the field of endocrinology will probably wish to have a copy. Despite its title it is regrettable that there is no essay on current concepts of the mechanism of action of hormones at the cellular level, for the unit of a life, and hence the unit of concern for clinicians, is the cell.
