Accordingly, the editor, a pioneer in clinical ghrelin investigation, has assembled an expert team of authors who bring cutting edge and comprehensive basic and clinical knowledge to the reader. This volume will be of interest to endocrinologists, nutritionists, internists, and pediatricians. Clearly, the volume will be of special interest to neurophysiologists, who now find themselves in the midst of a new world of nutritional control!
