The prevalence of diabetes continues to increase worldwide. Traditionally diabetes in its adult form has not been considered a serious life threatening disease. This attitude needs to be changed because the complications associated with the adult form of diabetes affect almost every organ system. The high morbidity and mortality of Non-Insulin- Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) suggest that current treatment strategies are unsatisfactory and that there is an urgent need for new therapeutic approaches. This volume provides a comprehensive description and evaluation of recently obtained and up to now unpublished data written by leading experts in this field. Also discussed are antidiabetics under development and new approaches for the management of type 2 diabetes.
