Reviews

The organization is excellent and allows the reader to learn key public health messages. The authors have made a convincing case that diabetes is a major public health problem and that a strong database exists that can be used to influence policy changes to address diabetes and its complications. -- Medical University of South Carolina Charleston This is a superb contribution exploring the public health implications of and evidence-based interventions for the worldwide diabetes epidemic...I know of no other resources that can compare to this excellent book. It pulls together information not readily found elsewhere with authority, elegance, and lucidity. --Doody's
