Good summary of various kidney diseases and treatments
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Even though I am non-specialist in a field of nephrology, this book is not too difficult to read and understand.

But, as for the section of transplant, I think this kind of book should provide more information as like as the immunosuppress drugs which are under development. I beleive hope is the best therapy for patients with chronic diseases.
