Description
The sixth edition examines kidney structure and function before developing the mechanisms underlying renal disease. Cellular and molecular explanations are connected with abnormal physiology and clinical nephrology, making the text relevant to both laboratory research and specialist training. Contributions span renal science and practice.
Topics covered
- Normal renal structure, function, and physiological regulation.
- Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying kidney disease.
- Physiology-based approaches to understanding renal diagnosis and management.
Who it’s for
Nephrology fellows, practising nephrologists, renal researchers, and advanced learners in kidney science.
Study use: Use the physiology chapters to investigate why a clinical renal problem occurs before turning to its disease-focused discussion.
