Rezension
From the reviews of the fifth edition:
"The authors did an impressive job making sure the book was up to date, including discussions of therapies that are still in their experimental stages. ... Inborn Metabolic Diseases is an excellent clinical guide and reference to this complex subject. It will be highly valuable to anyone who cares for patients with metabolic diseases, or for whom such diseases are regularly in the differential diagnosis." (Daniel Kenney, Neurology, April, 2013)
"This clearly written update on a highly complex group of inherited metabolic disorders describes childhood-onset and adult-onset inherited conditions. ... the book is most useful for pediatric subspecialists (e.g., clinical geneticists, neurologists), although it covers adult-onset metabolic diseases as well. ... This is an outstanding book about the complex and mostly newly described field of clinical biochemical genetics. This fifth edition offers the most current overview of a rapidly evolving specialty which has relevance to all areas of medical practice." (Hans Christoph Andersson, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2012)
