If you are going to buy this book, which I think is pretty good, just buy Medical Physiology: A Systems Approach by Raff and Levitzky. It is a textbook that is basically the entire Lange physiology series wrapped into one. The Endocrine physiology unit in the textbook is exactly the same as this book. So you can either buy an entire series of books or get the textbook. It's way more economical to get the textbook. However, if you are not interested in any of the material outside of endocrinology, I would recommend this book
