Rezensionen
From the reviews:
"The purpose is to provide up-to-date information about different types of insulin, insulin delivery devices, side effects, and goals of therapy. ... It seems most appropriate for junior medical trainees and medical students. ... Its small size makes it convenient to carry around. This will be very useful for medical practitioners looking for a quick and easy-to-read guide on insulin therapy." (Olesya Krivospitskaya, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2013)
