Editorial Reviews for Endocrinology (6th Edition)
|
|
 This revision of the classic textbook in endocrinology will offer all of the advantages found in earlier editions of Hadley's "Endocrinology," including clear explanations, interesting applications, and in-depth coverage of vertebrate hormones. In addition, chapters are now presented in a lecture-friendly format, with headers summarizing each of the major concepts.  As in earlier editions, basic principles of molecular, cellular, and integrative endocrinology are presented early, along with an updated guide to current research and methodologies. Following chapters contain discussions of each of the major endocrine systems, supplemented with the most important and interesting new information.  Neuroendocrine and reproductive systems are the specialty of the new co-author of this edition, and corresponding chapters have been appropriately increased in coverage. Special features of this new edition include... 1. Expanded explanations of basic concepts 2. Updated information on research methodologies 3. Latest research findings added to chapters on each endocrine system 4. Additonal diagrams and figures 5. Printed with second color scheme.
6. New "Think, Analyze, and Discuss" review questions   For health professionals, veterinarians, pharmacologists, and anyone in a field where endocrinology is the focus.

Customer Rating:  
Summary: The worst textbook I have ever used
Comment: This textbook would be valuable if you were looking for the most recent developments in endocrinology, but if you are trying to learn understandable details about the subject, this is an awful book. The layout was terrible and it skipped around so much that is was basically incomprehensible. I have no idea why my professor picked it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Comprehensive textbook.
Comment: The layout of this book make it very easy to use as a textbook or reference source. The clinical examples are very useful to those with a medical interest. The author offers a comprehensive, no nonsense aproach that gets the job done.
Customer Rating:
Summary: brevity is the soul of wit, and this ain't it
Comment: I was forced to buy this book for a mixed undergrad and graduate endo course. While this book is long on info, it really doesn't work for the course I am taking.... I often reference my biochem and cell bio texts in order to get the full picture. Hadley is also overly wordy, to the point that it can get cumbersome and confusing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: teacher review
Comment: This is a very good book with a lot of state of the art information. It will need some understanding of endocrinology or a good basic course in physiology to get the benefits. It would improve, probably, with an approach to the study of the hormones based on the physiological process being under regulation.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A potpourri of.....stuff.
Comment: One thing's for sure. You read this book from cover to cover and you'll be one knowledgable student. It's loaded with information about endocrinology. Unfortunately, it's also loaded with extraneous information, some of which is most likely irrelevant to what your endocrinology professor is trying to teach, i.e. human endocrinology. Moreover, this excess info makes you have to search long and hard to get to the information you're looking for! But in general, it's a good book. I give it two snaps up and a circle.
