这本344页的书包含了32篇论文在1975年4月的一个研讨会上，由铁代谢领域的主要工作者。这一主题的复杂性反映在不同的章节中，每个章节都包含了最新的临床，血液学和生化研究以及相应的领先稳定的思想。涵盖了代谢的各个方面，部分被分为铁平衡，缺乏，超载和治疗原则。主题范围从粘膜铁结合蛋白，血红蛋白氧转运，铁蛋白和难治性贫血的红细胞动力学研究到妊娠，慢性肾脏疾病和血色病的临床方面。每篇论文都有最新的参考资料，讨论是有益的，相关的和简短的。这本书主要不是针对生物化学家的，它有适合每个人的东西。它制作精良，有出色的图表、数字和电子显微照片（尽管我发现关于吸收和周转的临床方面的章节中的数字过于详细），编辑们能够在整个过程中保持流畅的风格。这本书对那些直接参与铁研究的人将具有最大的价值。虽然我不会推荐它作为生物化学家的标准，但我觉得它会公正地对待任何图书馆的书架，无论是生物化学还是医学。
This 344-page book contains the 32 papers given at a workshop in April 1975 by the leading workers in the field of iron metabolism. The complexity of this subject is reflected in the different chapters, each of which contains the latest clinical, haematological and biochemical research and thinking from the appropriate leading stable. All aspects of metabolism are covered, the sections being divided into iron balance, deficiency, overload and principles of therapy. Topics range from mucosal iron-binding proteins, haemoglobin oxygen transport, ferritin and erythrokinetic studies of refractory anaemias to clinical aspects of pregnancy, chronic renal disease and haemochromatosis. Each paper has up-to-date references, and the discussions are helpful, pertinent and brief. The book is not principally aimed at biochemists, and has something in it for everyone. It is well produced, with excellent graphs, figures and electron micrographs (though I found the figures in the chapter on clinical aspects of absorption and turnover far too detailed), and the editors have been able to maintain a fluent style throughout. This book will be of greatest value to those directly involved in iron research. Although I would not recommend it as a standard for biochemists, I feel it would do justice to any library bookshelf, either biochemical or medical.
