PUBLICATIONS FOR PERSONS WITH DIABETES

It is well recognized that no amount of medical services can substitute for the active involvement of persons with diabetes in their own care. Good diabetes control requires the attention of each patient every day.

To enable patients to meet this challenge, Dr. Rossini and Ruth Lundstrom, R.N., C.D.E. have published a monograph that summarizes the information an individual with diabetes needs to achieve and maintain excellent diabetes control in the interval between clinic visits.

  • Lundstrom, RE and Rossini, AA: The Diabetes Handbook, Jones and Bartlett, 2003. 224 pp.

The Diabetes Handbook is available at many bookstores and from many internet vendors like Amazon.com.
