Recensione

Overall this book covers the renal curriculum very well. There is an emphasis on theoretical knowledge but also some good practical clinical information present to aid the student on clinical placement. I found this book very easy to read and intuitive in the way each section follows. I would not change this formula.

I think the current system of 'pull out' boxes works well and too many types of boxes may overcomplicate. For me the mix is very good.

Dr Steve Riley, Senior Lecturer in Nephrology, Cardiff, July 2009

The book certainly covers the curriculum, no doubt.

This is an impressive piece of work & if really done by a medical student then hats off to them. Well done. As noted above, it is readable & nicely laid out with good diagrams & figures.

Paddy Gibson, Nephrologist, Department of Renal Medicine, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, EDINBURGH

This is a very helpful book for revision of the complex renal and urinary systems. The book is full of diagrams, tables and flow charts which simplify learning of these difficult specialities. I feel that the basic sciences at the start of the book is more appropriate for the earlier years of medical school where I feel it would be useful for PBL cases, however, the book was also useful during my 4th year clinical attachment on the renal wards, where this book was a great revision tool.

Steve Gilchrist, Medical Student, University of Edinburgh, Jun 2009

A great series! Clearly written, great diagrams, lots of questions, great for revision. Easy to dip into and out of! A great overview of the Renal System!

A must have for all those in their clinical years and approaching finals!

Sarah Edwards, Peninsula Medical School, 27th Feb 2009

The language used is very easy to understand. The content concentrates on breadth rather than depth is therefore useful for revision..the diagrams are very clear and concise, often explaining the concepts better than the texts. Also the little 'pointer' boxes attracted me to useful information. I particular liked the flow charts for diagnosis.

The different ways of testing knowledge in the self assessment section is very useful. Overall the book is very useful for revision purposes with clear, easy to understand text and diagrams with a substantial clinical section.

Fatima Rashid, University of Keele, July 2008

Never underestimate the importance of the kidney! At first glance, the renal system may not excite but this concise summary of a fairly complex system would make a useful addition to your collection of medical books. You will undoubtedly find yourself referring to this book time and again. It covers everything from the renin-angitoensin system to dialysis to prostate cancer. The book encompasses the anatomy, physiology and diseases of the renal and urinary systems in an easy to read format. Finally, as with all books in the Crash Course series, there is an extensive self-assessment section with MCQs and SAQs.

Michael Wilson, University of Glasgow, Jul 2008

Crash Course is a simple concise summary of the basics of renal physiology and pharmacology. It provides an excellent basis for last minute revision for the renal compnent of the medical curriculum or BMedSci.

Diritto di recesso

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts

for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
