Drs. Bilous and Donnelly revised and updated the popular handbook origination by Williams and Pickup, maintaining the clinical emphasis on the management of patients with diabetes.
Over three editions the Handbook of Diabetes has built a reputation as an essential practical manual on the assessment and management of patients with diabetes. Previously written by Gareth Williams and John Pickup, the book has been completely revised by Rudy Bilous and Richard Donnelly to reflect recent changes in diabetes treatment and care. It contains information on the new IFCC units for measuring blood glucose and the latest drugs being used to combat diabetes, as well as alternative methods of insulin delivery.
The book has been fully updated and redesigned to make it even more user-friendly, and contains case histories, practice points, and landmark clinical trials highlighted in color in each chapter where appropriate. It also features an entirely new set of clinical photographs, and all 250 images from the book can be downloaded from the companion CD for use in presentations.
The Handbook of Diabetes is the ideal practical handbook for all health professionals with an interest in diabetes care.

"A significant feature of the book is the provision of a CD ROM which allows the purchaser to download all 269 images from the book for their own use and teaching purposes. This will be particularly useful to students and pracitioners in training who are increasingly looking for good quality material to illustrate their own presentations." -- Practical Diabetes International, 2010
