Overall this is a useful book to provide a rapid overview about practical aspects of general endocrinology. It is a great starting point for internal medicine residents and fellows. "Secrets" may not be the right word: it is a good overview of essential practical knowledge about pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches and therapeutic modalities.By Peter Kopp
The chapters are somewhat uneven in terms of depth: some are quite detailed (e.g. diabetes in pregnancy), others would warrant slightly more detail and updating (as well as elimination of mostly minor errors that could probably be easily be eliminated by a reading by peers).
While this has nothing to do with the content, one very weak point is the size of the print, which is way too small! Many will need a magnifying glass to read the text. The publisher would be well advised to fix this - otherwise it is not worth buying future versions of this book or other "secrets".
I chose this rating because it's a very practical book and updated. It has very concise summaries of the different endocrine pathologies , it is very easy to read with the main questions we want to be answered. It is not a book to go deeper into a subject but that is not the objective of the book. I really recomend it.By Idivia Martino
