Endocrinology is one of the most fascinating fields of physiology that
is playing an important role in human health and welfare. The book
will stimulate the interest of young students and kindle in them a
desire to read more intensively since it contains every aspect of
hormonal coordination in the human body. The integration of cell
signalling pathways, involvement of receptors in signal transduction,

loops and role of hormones in pharmaceutical industry-all these facts
of endocrinology are incorporated in a comprehensive form.
