American Diabetes Association. A Field Guide to Type 2 Diabetes: The Essential Resource from the Diabetes Experts
This book delivers as advertised. The format is similar to a travel guide, which makes it easy to find the destination (or topic) of choice and go directly to it. Tables and charts allow for a quick reference to facts about laboratory tests or medications. The addition of a personal touch, such as comments from actual patients on topics taken from the ADA web site, give it a unique focus as compared to other diabetes fact books.
The Field Guide pays special attention to everyday issues that people with diabetes face, such as finding medical services or dealing with a doctor who is not very interested in diabetes. These are issues that it might take several years for a patient to address, especially if they don't attend diabetes classes or support groups. This is a comprehensive resource, written by well-known diabetes experts, which serves as a good beginner's guide to the nuts and bolts of diabetes.
Summary of A Field Guide to Type 2 Diabetes
An excellent book for the patient or family member. It is even more valuable to the diabetes educator who is trying to explain in simple terms a very complicated disease to someone without a medical background.
