      abstract = {The field of adipose tissue biology has been expanding at  a very rapid pace in the last few years. Numerous advances  have been made since publication of the first edition of  this book, in terms of basic adipocyte biology,  understanding of the determinants of obesity, distribution  of body fat and weight loss, as well as the mechanisms  linking excess adiposity to various co-morbidities. Adipose  Tissue and Adipokines in Health and Disease, Second Edition  contains updated chapters from the previous volume but as  the field has evolved, some areas covered in the first  edition have been refocused to address the new knowledge.  The volume is divided in four sections: the first two deal  with basic adipose tissue and adipokine biology, while the  last two address the problem of obesity and alterations in  adipose tissue function from an epidemiological and  clinical standpoint. The chapters are written by experts in  their fields and include the most up to date scientific  information. Adipose Tissue and Adipokines in Health and  Disease, Second Edition is a useful resource for physicians  interested in adipose tissue biology and basic scientists  who want to know more about applied aspects of the field.  The book targets endocrinologists, residents and fellows,  internists, nutritionists and general practitioners who are  exposed to an ever-expanding obese population.},
