Clinical Gynecologic Endocrinology and Infertility-6판

Clinical Gynecologic Endocrinology and Infertility

ANNOTATION
The book contains predominantly two-color illustrations, with some black-and-
white illustrations.

This completely updated Sixth Edition reflects the growth of reproductive
biology and medicine. While adhering to the style and relevance of the first
edition, the editors set out to provide the latest information and research on
reproductive physiology, contraception, infertility, and clinical
endocrinology. Heavy emphasis is also placed on progestins and hormone
administration and therapy within several chapters of the text. Comprehensive,
relevant, and highly informative, this edition truly lends itself to the
improvement of patient care in the field of clinical reproductive endocrinology.
FROM THE CRITICS
James Aiman
The fifth edition of this textbook is expanded by 11 chapters and probes more
deeply into basic reproductive physiology while retaining the useful clinical
chapters. Chapters on contraception expand the scope of this subject. The
purpose is to improve patient care by increasing the knowledge of clinicians.
This is a worthy objective that is accomplished to a degree few other texts
achieve. This book is intended for residents and practicing physicians who need
to know about reproductive disorders. The authors are credible authorities. Dr.
Speroff and his coauthors are master teachers with the rare gift to render the
difficult understandable. Lisa Million is the illustrator and is also
responsible for the page layout. The authors and publisher were finally wise
enough to acknowledge the enormous contribution of her illustrations and
design. The references are sufficient for the subject and are current. The
appearance of this book adds to its usefulness. This book deserves to appear as
a fifth edition. It is without doubt the most frequent reference for
obstetricians and gynecologists who need practical information about management
problems of all aspects of reproduction and infertility. The text marries well
with the illustrations to yield a book that is a joy to read and easy to
understand and that teaches effectively.
