ABSTRACT

This book concerns the clinical chemistry of women � from conception to the grave. It concerns their medical problems and the laboratories� role in elucidating these and in monitoring treatment. The book represents the current �state of the art� and although in many areas there are sometimes widely divergent opinions, it is good that these should be aired so that problem areas can be revealed and opinions revised when further experimental work is done as a consequence.
