The field of adipose tissue biology has been expanding at a very
rapid pace in the last few years. Numerous advances have been made
since publication of the first edition of this book, in terms of
basic adipocyte biology, understanding of the determinants of
obesity, distribution of body fat and weight loss, as well as the
mechanisms linking excess adiposity to various co-morbidities.
Adipose Tissue and Adipokines in Health and Disease, Second Edition
contains updated chapters from the previous volume but as the field
has evolved, some areas covered in the first edition have been
refocused to address the new knowledge. The volume is divided in
four sections: the first two deal with basic adipose tissue and
adipokine biology, while the last two address the problem of
obesity and alterations in adipose tissue function from an
epidemiological and clinical standpoint. The chapters are written
by experts in their fields and include the most up to date
scientific information. Adipose Tissue and Adipokines in Health and
Disease, Second Edition is a useful resource for physicians
interested in adipose tissue biology and basic scientists who want
to know more about applied aspects of the field. The book targets
endocrinologists, residents and fellows, internists, nutritionists
and general practitioners who are exposed to an ever-expanding
obese population.
