Media Reviews
I am unaware of any other illustrated text with the breadth and scope of Dr. Scobie's An Atlas of Diabetes MellitusI have no doubt that both my students and I will find this book useful for many years to come. -- Robert A. Rizzo, M.D. This book offers a concise review of diabetes mellitus enriched by a section containing over 100 striking and interesting illustrations. The most outstanding feature is its extensive section of illustrations. Of the many interesting illustrations, those worthy of special note are photographs of patients with rare syndromes associated with diabetes; a practical guide to diabetic supplies and absorption profiles for various insulin regimens; a series of fundus photographs of various stages of diabetic retinopathy; and sections on diabetic foot and skin complications. The illustrations are an excellent aid to the visual recognition of diabetes-related disorders and confirm the old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words. Although the broad subject of diabetes mellitus is concisely reviewed, some important topics are either omitted or under-represented. This book makes a unique and worthwhile contribution to the diabetic literaturetargets a wider audience and offers probably the finest ensemble of diabetes-related illustrations available. - Nicholas P.
