Diseases have a history, and understanding that history helps us
understand how best to treat and control disease today. Today's
students are confronted with a panoply of often-frightening
illnesses and afflictions - the Biographies of Disease series
provides students with the information that they need to understand
the origin of various maladies, how they impact contemporary
society, and how doctors and researchers from around the world are
fighting to devise treatments to alleviate or cure these diseases.
This volume, Diabetes, covers a disease that has been a common
affliction from the beginning of recorded history, but has been
increasing in its impact because of changes in diet and exercise,
especially among the young.
