The Aging Kidney in Health and Disease

Review

From the reviews:

"This book attempts to consolidate the different aspects of chronic kidney disease/end stage renal disease (CKD/ESRD) management with the corresponding aspects of geriatrics. … The target audience would include essentially any healthcare provider who deals with the geriatric population. This could be a physician, nurse practitioner, physician’s assistant, medical student, etc. The book is easy to read for every one of these practitioners." (Kevin C Harned, Doody’s Review Service, May, 2008)

"Whether in health or in disease, age affects many parts of the body – including the kidneys – and this book, The Aging Kidney in Health and Disease, delves deeply into these matters in a well-organized and readable fashion. It gives readers an overview of the physiology and pathology of the kidney during the aging process. … will serve as a multidisciplinary guide for general physicians, internists, nephrologists, and geriatricians who want to improve their knowledge of geriatric nephrology." (Jane F. Reckelhoff and Julio C. Sartori-Valinotti, The New England Journal of Medicine, July, 2008)
