From the reviews:
"This is an excellent book for those studying pediatric nephrology and it presents a number of thought provoking cases. … Fellows in pediatric nephrology or clinicians interested in reviewing the broad scope of pediatric nephrology will find the book informative. … It covers most areas of nephrology … . I found this book thought provoking and entertaining. It espouses a logical approach to clinical thinking and would provide a good way to study in small segments for the nephrology or pediatric nephrology board exams."
