THE METABOLIC BASIS OF INHERITED DISEASE Fifth Edition John B. Stanbury, M.D., James B. Wyngaarden, M.D., Donald S. Fredrickson, M.D., Joseph L. Gold- stein, M.D., Michael S. Brown, M.D. Through four successful editions, TIlE MET- ABOLIC BASIS OF INllERITED DISEASE has maintained its reputation as the leading textbook in its field, the book that residents and practicing physicians and clinical in- vestigators worldwide have consistently relied on to provide them with the most authoritative, comprehensive, current, and useful information available in the area of inherited metabolic disease. Selected by the American College of Physicians in their Library for Internists IV as recommended reading in three different categories of medicine (one of two works accorded this honor), it is the standard against which all other textbooks on hereditary human dis- ease are judged. The Fifth Edition was written by a distin- guished group of 138 internationally rec- ognized contributing specialists - all authorities in their respective fields - working under the guidance of well known and highly respected medical profession- als, including two editors new to this edi- tion, Drs. Joseph L. Goldstein and Michael S. Brown. The result of this collaboration is a distinctly modern treatment of the subject in an area of medicine where new information is constantly being disseminated. Finally, the Fifth Edition contains several important features that enhance its useful- ness and appeal to physicians and inves- tigators. These include: detailed chapter- opening summaries; an extensive illustra- tion program of charts, graphs, black and white photographs, a 23-page summary table of inborn errors of metabolism, and part-opening drawings; a comprehensive index; extensive cross-references; and fully up-to-date bibliographies. 1983 (60726-5) $100.00 24 JUNE 1983 PRINCIPLES OF BIOCHEMISTRY: General Aspects, Seventh Edition PRIMCIPLES OF BIOCHEMISTRY: Mammalian Biochemistry, Seventh Edition Emil L.
