"The simple use of color to highlight major subheadings, pagination, useful tables, and decision trees is effective. Illustrative radiographic images are plentiful. High-quality color photographs, histologic slides, and informative illustrations catch the eye.the didactic benefit of the book is enhanced by the inclusion of a CD-ROM with searchable content and a format that allows easy saving and incorporation of its materials into teaching presentations.this new textbook is innovative and generally reflects the evolution of pediatric nephrology and the ways in which we prioritize and process information. it is an appealing contribution to the field." - NEJM April 2009
