Completely updated for its Ninth Edition, this classic text provides comprehensive coverage of every aspect of thyroid anatomy, development, biochemistry, physiology, pathophysiology, and treatment of all thyroid disorders. This edition has a more international group of contributors and new chapters on mortality in thyroid disease, oncogenes, radioiodine treatments for carcinoma, trophoblastic tumors, and subacute and acute infectious thyroiditis. Chapters address clinical controversies regarding subclinical hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. The section on laboratory assessment of thyroid function has been reorganized for easier look-up of function tests.

Braverman's grand work is almost the standard against which all other thyroid texts are compared. While not as comprehensive as the 6th edition, the eighth edition manages to cover the essentials of Thyroidology today. While some of the authors still seem to subscribe to the false god of TSH, instead of taking a good history and using good clinical acumen; this work does cover the state of Thyroidology as it exists today. Definitely an excellent reference for anyone working in the field, and a good place to begin a better understanding of the Thyroid.
