Diabetes Guide Book for the Physician

This booklet is concerned primarily with adult diabetes.

Part I, The Clinical Problem, is obviously written for physicians with a limited knowledge of medicine and diabetes. Part II, Dietary Regulation, covers 37 of the booklet's 73 pages, excluding references (all but one prior to 1949) and description of the American Diabetes Association. Yet there is little that will help the pediatrician or the child diabetic patient. For example, the basic "calculation of the dietary prescription" prescribe a diet for a 9 year old girl of 66 lbs. (30 kg.) of but 1100 calories instead of the approximately 1800 calories required.
