Reviews / Votes
"I recommend the book for physicians who see diagnose and treat patients with endocrine tumors It provides a broad strong base of knowledge and a good foundation for further investigation of the treatment options for these tumors." (New England Journal of Medicine, April 2009) "The new edition of Clinical Endocrine Oncology has been fully revised and extended making it the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference available. Written and edited by leading international experts in the field, it sets the standard in multidisciplinary care for patients with endocrine tumors. This authoritative and practical text will be an invaluable resource for all those working in the field ... .Because so much has changed since the first edition was published 11 years ago, a second edition is warranted."
