Female Puberty: A Comprehensive Guide for Clinicians by Jennifer E. Dietrich

Female Puberty: A Comprehensive Guide for Clinicians is a practical reference, covering the full range of issues related to pubertal development. Developed to answer pointed clinical questions and to provide a thorough review of the literature, the book covers both the basics and the complexities of puberty, encompassing psychosocial development to pubertal nuances in highly specialized populations. Comprehensive in scope, this title offers concepts that are concisely conveyed and chapters that complement each other well.

An invaluable contribution to the literature, Female Puberty: A Comprehensive Guide for Clinicians will be of great interest to all health providers concerned with female reproductive health - including obstetrician gynecologists, reproductive endocrine specialists, pediatricians, pediatric specialists, family practitioners and allied health professionals.

Female Puberty Reviews

From the book reviews:

This comprehensive guide on female puberty is heavy on anatomy and physiology as well as endocrinology. ... The book is written at the level of the resident, although practicing physicians in this area would benefit from it. ... This is an excellent, thorough book on a very specific patient problem. It is easy to see how advances in the field will make future updates necessary. (Anthony Shanks, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2014)
