The Diabetes Guide adopts a novel, non-textual approach in order to present comprehensive, up-to-date information on the theory and practice of diabetology. Tables, diagrams, flowsheets, summaries and annotations take the place of the usual prose and verbiage. As a result, vast amounts of knowledge on the definition, classification, management, complications and various other aspects of diabetes have been condensed into a surprisingly digestible pocketbook. An outstanding feature of the Diabetes Guide is the provision of succinct, practical recommendations for solving problems that arise during the daily care of patients with diabetes. The subjects covered under these recommendations cover a wide range: insulin infuser pump problems, the care of foot ulcers, food exchanges, travel and acute illness, insulin allergy and desensitization protocol, diabetic emergencies, pregnancy, surgery, hypoglycaemia, etc.
Emerging perspectives on genetic counseling, the insulin gene and pancreatic transplantation are also incorporated. Such breadth of coverage without the usual price of increased bulk has been made possible by the unique non-textual approach. The Diabetes Guide is truly a user-friendly, ready reference or vade mecum with practical tips and core information about diabetes.

The Diabetes Guide presents ready tips on the current state of knowledge in clinical diabetology and provides pratical recommendations for solving acute problems. By adopting a unique, "non-textual" approach, vast amounts of useful information have been compressed into the readily digestible tables, flowsheets, diagrams, curves, annotations and cryptic summaries that are embodied in this deceptively small pocketbook.
