Review

Doody's Book Review Service , Jens Goebel, MD, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center -- "Like the first edition of 1994, this second edition provides a solid, broad understanding of the mechanisms underlying kidney dysfunction and disease...The book comprehensively covers all aspects of the kidney function in health and its alterations in kidney disease, acute and chronic. It is written, illustrated, and structured very well with a useful mix of case vignettes, summaries, questions and two-color illustrations that are clear and helpful...The strength of this book is its didactic clarity, conciseness, and structure, reflected in its compact paperback format while preserving its comprehensiveness."-Doody's Book Review Service
