Reviews

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is the best attempt so far to integrate conflicting views of this syndrome into an understanding that will help the general physician. -New England Journal of Medicine


'The style is readable and informed and for the most part is complemented by graphics and illustrations which are helpful and clear.' - Mark Hamilton, Human Fertility, March 2007 'An excellent contemporary and detailed overview of PCOS: clearly written and well illustrated. This is essential reading for both the general gynaecologist and specialist in reproductive medicine produced by recognised leaders in the field., - Highly Commended, Obstetrics & Gynaecology Category, 2006 BMA Medical Book Competition 'Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is the best attempt so far to integrate conflicting views of this syndrome into an understanding that will help the general physician, endocrinologist, dermatologist, gynecologist, and radiologist in treating patients.' - The New England Journal of Medicine, December, 2005 'This book is a wonderful overall management guide for physicians who see patients with PCOS. The book is an easy-to-read guide that covers the entire range of topics pertinent to PCOS. Because chapters are divided according to a symptom-orientated approach, the book is easy to use as a quick reference.' - Fertility and Sterility
