I found ... Read morethis book a delight to read - it provides a balanced diet of genetics, pathophysiology and clinical medicine. For experts and researchers in the field there is detailed information and stimulation; for interested clinicians, the scientific sections are intelligibly presented and the clinical sections should be a real aid in day-to-day practice. This book does not simply give a list of known features or research in the condition it covers, it also squarely addresses some of the more difficult problems which face clinicians and their patients.

This is a further addition to the 'Oxford Clinical Nephrology' Series and provides an extensive review of our current knowledge on polycystic kidney disease...Overall this is an excellent book and provides much useful information for both the diagnosis and management of renal cystic diseases. It can be highly recommended, not just for the outstanding way the subject has been approached, but because the book also contains useful background information which greatly enhances the overall value.
