Foreword
I am delighted to write the foreword for “Endocrine disrupting chemicals-induced
metabolic disorders and treatment strategies” The editors; Dr. Akash, Dr. Rehman
and Dr. Hashmi have met the need of our research society by compiling the basics
through the advances. Although this book undoubtedly justifies having an extensive
readership, it should be more professionally read by researchers in the field and
specialists of endocrinology with expertise in clinical practice. Rather truthfully,
this book has been edited by the authors, other than whom no one else could have
probably written it in this way.
Dr. Akash and accompanied editors of this book have excelled in the field of
metabolic diseases and environmental pollutants and their impact on health. This
book highlights the role of endocrine disrupting chemicals in inducing, progressing
and/or prevailing metabolic disorders. The different segments that this book serves
including endocrine physiology, intro to endocrine disruptors and their association
with metabolic disorders, contributes to the endocrine science. Dr. Akash and his
able companion editors have sensibly provided the updated art and science of endocrine physiology particularly involved or “at risk” for metabolic disorders on exposure to endocrine disruptors. Moreover, they have also focused wisely on these
factors relating to their sources of exposure and mechanism of pathogenesis. Most
interestingly they have also provided the probable preventive as well as treatment
approaches for these endocrine disrupting chemicals induced metabolic disorders.
These categorical discussions in the book represent the staircase evolutionary
approach for taking the basics of metabolic disorders and understanding of endocrine disrupting chemicals to the development of metabolic diseases. This is followed by the probable intervention which suggests possible preventive and curative
measures. This unique compiling effort gives an affirmative sign to be the hallmark
for the success of this book in future.
In addition, this book not only serves as a source of providing major endocrine
disruptors and metabolic disorders on a single platform to researchers, but is
designed to also serve as a companion resource to clinicians, including endocrinologists. It may also assist the educational basis for many post graduate students
enrolled or preparing for admissions in similar disciplines like Medicine, Pharmacy,
