"Inborn Metabolic Diseases: Diagnosis and Treatment remains one of the standard textbooks for professionals working in inborn metabolic medicine and biochemical genetics. ... Inborn Metabolic Diseases: Diagnosis and Treatment gives an excellent and most up to date overview and deep insight on a rapidly evolving specialty with a steadily growing number of patients, most of them now growing-up and reaching adulthood, and is, therefore, informative for experts as well as for those who seek to become one."
