Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This comprehensive yet concise handbook is an indispensable reference for the many clinicians who see patients with disorders of mineral metabolism, metabolic bone diseases, or disorders of stone formation. In a format designed for quick reference, it provides complete information on the symptoms, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of all common and rare bone and mineral disorders. New in this edition: the table of contents has been completely revised and updated, based on reviewer comments; the approach to osteoporosis now reflects the new W.H.O. definition by mineral density and other criteria, and includes genetics; and all chapters have been made more clinically relevant for patient evaluation and treatment.

I've been purchasing this primer each time new edition comes out and it has become major source of reference in topics of metabolic bone disease for me. Topics covered are comprehensive yet the coverage is concise and to the point most of the time. I think the book has become a classic textbook in the field of metabolic bone diseases. I know I will be waiting for the 7th edition.

I highly reccomend this book. This book divided into several short chapters providing concise reviews on basic science and clinical diseases of bone. The book is well written and has many useful tables. This book is the official primer published by the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research. It is writen by many intenationally known scientists in the field of bone and mineral research. It is a book that belongs to any physician caring for patients with bone diseases not limited to osteoporosis.
