Review "Cushings Syndrome is a welcome additon to the literature on a subject that remains among the most difficult and challenging in endocrinology. [...] well-presented review of the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of Cushings syndrome and was written by some of the leading experts in the field. ...the audience for this book is not experts in the field but rather fellows-in-training, general practitioners, and endocrinologists in practice. I recommend it to them wholeheartedly. I also would suggest this book to patients with Cushings syndrome as well as to academic physicians who are interested in the clinical and molecular investigation of this disorder, both as a first step and as a guide to the intricacies and controversies surrounding the diagnosis and treatment of endogenous hypercortisolemia in humans."(The New England Journal of Medicine, 349:8 (2003) Promotional Springer Book Archives Long Description Cushings Syndrome provides the reader with an update on the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with Cushings syndrome.
