A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Living with type 1 diabetes requires intensive, nonstop daily management, week after week, year after year. This means that young people with type 1 and their parents have to become experts on their own condition—even better informed than the average doctor—and able to self-manage its daily demands. The Type 1 Diabetes Book is the most authoritative book ever published on the condition and will become the one book that every young person with type 1 diabetes will need to own. "In this book," writes author Dr. Ragnar Hanas, "I speak directly, all the time, to you, the person with diabetes. The topics covered range from how your body works to sweets, treats, and ice cream; from insulin injection technique to long-term complications; and any number of subjects in between. With this book at your side, you can easily and quickly get to know about diabetes and how to handle it with confidence in all the different situations that life has to offer." With 40 chapters, 430 graphs and illustrations, 168 medical terms explained, and 813 references to articles and journals, no other book available on this subject comes remotely close to the quality or amount of comprehensive information offered here.

Revue de presse :

This is far and away the best diabetes resource I have ever come across. It has information you will not find anywhere else and is well presented and indexed...If you are serious about managing your child's diabetes to the best of your ability, you cannot afford to do without this book. --Reviewer from London, featured on the Amazon website

The information is clear, concise and extremely readable. All imaginable topics are covered from hypoglycaemia, through pregnancy and on to psychological issues! It is difficult to imagine anyone, including healthcare professionals, teachers and grandparents, not learning something helpful. --Practical Diabetes International
