Abstract
The metabolism of calcium and bone is controlled by five principal hormones: parathyroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, calcitonin, parathyroid hormone-related peptide and fibroblast growth factor 23, some of which have been known for several decades and some of which have only more recently been identified. The stories of the discovery of these hormones have constituted a series of complex journeys that have been undertaken over the past century or so, none of which has yet been completed. The complexities of bone and calcium metabolism have been and remain, to many people, somewhat mysterious and a daunting task to understand. This book is designed to try to unravel those mysteries and present them in an interesting and comprehensible manner.
