The Philatelic History of Diabetes : In Search of a Cure

Part medical mystery, part cultural history, The Philatelic History of Diabetes is the story of diabetes, chronicling experimental research, therapeutic advances, and hope for a cure.

With 30 internationally issued postage stamps beautifully displayed and identified by country and date of issue, this book groups commemorative stamps into five evolutionary phases that illustrate how diabetes has been viewed throughout history.
