If before the war diabetes was most often a disease of the wealthy classes, nowadays in all countries, including ours, there is an increase in the incidence of diabetes among the mass of the population, and, even more curious, the number of juvenile, severe forms of the disease has undoubtedly increased. This circumstance, as well as the discovery and wide use of insulin and especially the appearance on the market of insulin of our production, has forced the practitioner much more interested in both diabetes and its treatment than it was before. The book by Prof. M. P. Konchalovsky and Dr. I. P. Zolotareva therefore appeared as timely as possible, responding to the urgent demand of a wide circle of doctors.
