Reviews of the Previous Editions:
"This is an excellent in-depth compilation of all aspects of renal physiology in health and disease, presented in well-balanced in chapters with high-quality figures and ample references.This book clearly represents an excellent, useful, usable, and (in view of recent rapid scientific progress) needed update of the previous edition and will have a prominent place on my bookshelf as well as those of many others in the field." - 4 Stars!
-- Jens W. Goebel, MD, University of Kentucky, for Doody's Review
“Since the publication of the previous edition, our understanding of the molecular and structural basis of electrolyte and water metabolism has expanded enormously. This new edition of The Kidney illuminates these basic science principles clearly and thoroughly while also providing comprehensive and clear clinical management. This edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. Tight editing and rigorous revision of the chapters, along with elimination of redundancy, have enabled us to return to a two-volume work. At more than 3,100 pages, with over 1,200 illustrations and hundreds of tables, The Kidney remains highly recommended for anyone active in renal research or clinical nephrology."
