Diabetes is becoming more common and now poses a global public health
problem. Drugs, Diet and Disease: Volume 2, Mechanistic Approaches to Diabetes
is a state-of-the-art contribution to a fast developing field by C. Ioannides
and P. R. Flatt (Prentice Hall, £79.95, ISBN 0 13 642000 1), covering
molecular biology, epidemiology, diet and treatment. New evidence that good
metabolic control reduces the risk of diabetic complications makes this text’s
coverage of novel treatments all the more exciting.
