Appropriate for one-semester junior-graduate level courses in Endocrinology, Endocrine Physiology, as well as courses in medicine, dentistry, pharmacology, nutrition, nursing and other related medical or animal sciences where endocrinology is the focus.
Hadley provides comprehensive coverage of endocrinology, centralizing on the critical roles of chemical messengers and hormones―whether they are of endocrine or neural origin―in the control of physiological processes. This up-to-date Fifth Edition depicts, through demonstration, the entire human endocrine system in examples designed specifically for premedical and related professional courses.

From the Back Cover
The dopaminergic neuron depicted on the front cover of the book has been treated in vitro with GDNF (glial cell line-derived neurotropic factor). Compared to control (nontreated) cells (back cover), the cell has become more dendritic. The deeper red color also indicates that it makes more of a key enzyme for dopamine biosynthesis. GDNF may hold promise in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. (Photographs courtesy of Lin et al., Synergen, Inc.)
