First ever text on bariatric endocrinology, which describes on how adipose tissue works and how it becomes diseased and contributes to metabolic disorders
Redefines practice to focus not just on weight loss as measured in pounds lost, but on adipose tissue mass and pathology, decreasing fat mass for adiposity-related diseases and returning adipose tissue to normal function
Authors and editors are thought leaders in obesity management and endocrinology
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This book discusses a range of topics related to the problem of obesity with a focus on the role of adipose tissue dysfunction. . This book will be valuable for those with an interest in the role of adipose tissue in the complications of obesity. It addresses obesity comprehensively, but at times lacks the focus that would enable readers to get clear 'take-home' messages." (Daniel Bessesen, Doody's Book Reviews, February, 2019)
