Although seldom studied or analyzed, osteoporosis in men is becoming an increasingly important clinical problem. While its onset in men begins at a later age, the effects can be as devastating and severe as they are in women. Osteoporosis in Men is the first text to focus specifically on osteoporosis as it presents in men. The editor has drawn together a team of experienced specialists to review all aspects of the disease and its management. Designed to help clinicians diagnose and treat elderly men with clear signs of progressing osteoporosis, the book examines the different approaches to therapy and assesses their effectiveness.
