El. knyga: Primer on the Metabolic Bone Diseases and Disorders of Mineral Metabolism

""Since it was first published 30 years ago, the Primer on the Metabolic Bone Diseases and Disorders of Mineral Metabolism has become the leading reference on bone and mineral health. While use of the Primer is ubiquitous in the bone biology and disease community, there remains significant potential for expansion of its reach. As medicine has come to a better systems-level understanding of disease and treatment, bone and metabolic bone disorders have become increasingly relevant to a wide variety of medical fields and conditions (e.g., oncology, thoracic surgery, rheumatology, endocrinology, geriatrics and gerontology, pediatric care). The Primer offers foundational information that can improve patient care and inform research across many fields. The Primer is a key asset for ASBMR, particularly in serving the needs of society members, in supporting ASBMR's mission, and in functioning as a cornerstone of ASBMR's reputation. In the 2021 ASBMR survey, members rank it as one of the top three benefits they receive for their membership. At the core of ASBMR's mission is advancing bone, mineral, and musculoskeletal science worldwide and promoting research to improve human health. The Primer is an essential conduit for fulfilling this mission. It offers a fundamental understanding of the foundational knowledge of the field, not just to members, but to the wider research and health care communities as well. Further, the Primer is widely acknowledged as the reputable and reliable source for information on bone biology and bone disease. This authoritative work cements the ASBMR's reputation as the leading authority in the field.""--

For nearly 40 years, the Primer on the Metabolic Bone Diseases and Disorders of Mineral Metabolism, a publication of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR), has been the leading comprehensive reference on bone and mineral health. In this fully revised 10th Edition, Dr. John P. Bilezikian and an expert editorial team of 34 global leaders and more than 300 contributing authors provide unsurpassed coverage of bone biology and bone diseases in a manner readily accessible to students, basic and clinical scientists, and practitioners.
