"Renal medicine scares many students, and we are often told it′s a postgraduate topic so don′t go into too much detail. Well this book is at the right level for undergrads, even for year 1. It is easy to read with an intro to kidney structure and function, including a nice section on clinical features of kidney disease. All your acid–base, hyper and hypoxxxaemias and other disorders are briefly covered as are renal processes too. Self–assessment test cases round off a good overivew of a topic, perfect for the slightly psychotic build up to finals." Surgo, Glasgow University Medical Journal, 78:4
"Students in their pre–clinical years will find this book an excellent and thorough introduction to the renal system and may well struggle without a book of this calibre...This is a book that should be on the bookshelf of all medical students, there′s no excuse not to have a copy! In addition, undergraduates from life science/health allied disciplines and clinicians are likely to find this book useful as a source of reference." GKT Gazette, September 2006
"It achieves this by combining all the elements of pre–clinical in a coherent and logical manner. The Introductory Section covers basic anatomy and embryology with a functional and clinical overview of the system. These opening pages help recollection of little long–forgotten facts. Subsequent chapters concerning the physiology and pharmacology of the system, is where the style of the book comes into its own. The diagrams give exemplary explanations of the sites of all the processes that left many a first year overwhelmed. The book then addresses many common (and commonly examined!) conditions, putting particular emphasis on the disease process. Knowing the underlying pathophysiology, it is argued, is the most useful aspect because essentially it doesn t change, whereas investigation and treatment are constantly refined or replaced. What s more, a good number of systemic conditions that interact with the renal system are covered. Finally, a dozen clinical scenarios give you an opportunity to check your understanding."
