Editorial Reviews for Renal Physiology This text covers all of the essential points of renal physiology in a concise presentation and provides an essential tool for introducing concepts or reviewing basic information. Extensive use of tables, diagrams, and illustrations aids comprehension. The focus on core concepts, end-of-chapter summaries, and the clinical content and emphasis make this an excellent learning tool. Includes relevant content on the kidney with regards to the new genetic and molecular information available. Also features a new exam for self testing.
Consumer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Good Physiology Comment: Book does a good job in explaining the main physiological points. Structure of book is around different functions (NaCl Transport) rather than speaking to specific renal structures and describing those functions. Does not have a good description of renal structure, but definitely enough to understand the physiology. Customer Rating: Summary: Awful. Comment: This book has been hands-down the worst explanation of renal physiology I've ever seen. Rather than discussing the "big picture" and then drilling down into the details, showing how they fit into the scheme of things, it goes straight to the details, which are very confusing. The lack of color is also a problem, since there are shaded boxes which could mean either extra details or a clinical scenario - there's no distinction between the two. I got more out of (gasp) Rhoades and Tanner, and finally understood what was going on in Costanzo (the "big" text, not the BRS). Customer Rating: Summary: Good enough Comment: Overall, the book wasn't that bad. It provided a nice overview and has a nice practice exam at the end. The biggest problem that I had was that the book was riddled with random errors, which makes learning renal physiology for the first time difficult. Also, I wish that there were explanations for their answers to the exam at the back of the book. Customer Rating: Summary: Must have for studying renal physiology! Comment: Having seen a low rating for this book- I have to defend its reputation. This book is GREAT! Very easy to understand compared to other very dry textbooks. Great diagrams. The best thing about it is the extensive amount of study prep material included such as end-of-the-chapter questions and 10 case studies (very helpful in connecting concepts). That's not all-it also comes with 2 Review Tests (50 questions each)! That's even more than BRS has to offer (44 questions). I couldn't have made an A on my renal test without this book! Customer Rating: Summary: Do not use this book as a primary source. Comment: This book is riddled with mistakes. These mistakes are integral to the understanding of physiology, not just grammatical or spelling errors. Frequently while reading this book I had to reference several other sources. If you buy this book, be aware that you will spend a great deal of time re-reading and thinking through a concept only to learn that the opposite is true (i.e., the book refers to pseudohypoaldosteronism as avid NaCl reabsorption). As a review, the book can be fun b/c you will pick up on errors. As a primary learning source, it can be very frustrating.
