Endocrinology Made Easy

Basic and Clinical Endocrinology provides the basics needed for a medical school endocrinology unit. By purchasing this book, a medical student is able to focus on the endocrine system in great detail.

Great Information

Likely a little too dense for just general residency, but still a great reference book for the general internist...great information for further endocrine training....well organized with the latest therapy recommendations

Great even for an "amateur" studier

I first found this book at our local university medical library, then bought a copy for myself. I used it to study the possible causes of infertility. I'm not in the medical profession or a medical student (other than as a hobby) but this book was easy for me to comprehend.

GREAT

this book is the book you want to have when you're doing your endocrinology rotation. It goes step by step from the basics and it doesn't loose itself into minor not important detales
