Vander's Renal Physiology (LANGE Physiology Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For anyone who struggled to understand why the nephron concentrates, then dilutes, then concentrates again the urine, this book will do much to ease your pain. Since medical school I've purchased Editions 1, 3, & 5, just so that I could keep up with my interns & residents. Here's how he does it:
#1: short book, (you know how intimidating those tomes can be)
#2: lots of diagrams
#3: end-of-chapter questions (with answers & explanations)
If you want to understand the Kidney, no matter where you are in your studies or practice, I wholeheartedly recommend this text.

Nephrology in 30 Days (30 Days Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a fourth year medical student, I can honestly say that at my school, the overwhelming consensus regarding renal physiology and nephrology is something to the effect of "Ewwww..." I had an interest in nephrology, and at the suggestion of one of our staff, I got this book and immediately loved it. It simplifies so many difficult concepts without sacrificing too much of the details. As far as I'm concerned, this book is appropriate for anyone from medical students to attending physicians. I highly recommend it to anyone interested or even confused by nephrology!

A concise review of the core principles and clinical entities associated with nephrology at the point of care.

4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW"This is an absolutely wonderful book and excellent for medical students, physician assistants, and trainees in all the medical disciplines. It differs from other handbooks or concise manuals by providing more detailed coverage of the fundamental pathophysiology and basic science behind each disorder, which facilitates understanding. The leading questions, highlighting key points in a colorful manner, the numerous figures and algorithms, and the easy-to-read style make this book rather unique. Although the width of the pages is wider than the usual handbooks and does not make this book a true "pocket" book, the larger font and the addition of all the tables and figures make it much easier to read. I highly recommend this book to students and trainees rotating on the nephrology service."--Doody's Review Service
