Reviews
I think that it would be of most use to young diabetologists and chemical pathologists early in their training to ensure that they understand the foundations and principles of the condition they are seeing every day. (Diabetes Update, 1 October 2013) Without doubt, this is an interesting and unique book with major merits. It succeeds in closing a gap not filled by other books and in giving fresh insights into biochemistry. (ChemMedChem, 1 August 2013)

Author Information
RICHARD F. DODS, PhD, D.ABCC, has studied, taught, and written about diabetes mellitus for many years, beginning as a research associate at New York University Medical School. As Director of Clinical Chemistry at the Louis A. Weiss Memorial Hospital, Dr. Dods published pioneering papers on the use of HbA1c as a test for monitoring diabetes mellitus. Later, he established his own company, Clinical Laboratory Consultants, which advised hospital and commercial laboratories on the implementation and interpretation of assays and the use of instruments for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease, including diabetes.
