Product Description

Inborn Metabolic Diseases is a pleasure to read. This book, "written by clinicians for clinicians," is in its third edition and seems to have come of age. It is a cohesive and authoritative work covering the fast-growing field of inborn errors of metabolism. In their preface, the editors refer readers to the latest edition of Molecular and Metabolic Bases of Inherited Disease for more detailed information. The latter book is the primary reference work in this field, but Inborn Metabolic Diseases is in many ways complementary. Clinicians working in the field, as well as those who see patients with inborn errors of metabolism less frequently, will find this book a wonderful companion. It covers briefly but comprehensively disorders of carbohydrate, amino acid, and mitochondrial energy metabolism, as well as disorders of neurotransmitters, lipids, nucleic acid and heme metabolism, and metal transport and disorders related to organelles.
