• Sommario/riassunto: Winner of 'BMA Book of the Year' in 2004 Judges' summary of the book:"This is a first-class text on the management of all aspects of the diabetic foot. It is a practical guide with information and advice, which is easy to access. It takes the reader through the natural history of the diabetic foot from the normal foot and relatively minor pathology to the end stage of infection, gangrene and ultimately amputation. The various stages with the book's structure have case studies to highlight the clinical management problems encountered by diabetes foot spe
