Decent writing without errors. Complete and accurate information, but overall a mediocre text as the authors consistently opt for two pages of difficult to read text when a carefully drawn meaningful schematic or other image and a small paragraph could convey the same information. Good for some physiologists but kind of a low yield waste of time for a medical student.
A great resource for learning renal physiology. It helped me get through that section of physiology in PA school. Breaks things down in easy to understand sections with some basic review questions at the end.
This is the classic book for learning renal physiology. The book is small and compact, and does a great job explaining the basic concepts in renal physiology. It is not for advanced study or for learning renal pathology, but is great for covering the basics. It is appropriate for medical and graduate students as well as other health-related students. While not perfect, overall I think this is a solid choice for learning renal physiology, and would highly recommend it. For study of physiology more generally, I would recommend any of the various Guyton books on Medical Physiology.Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, 13e (Guyton Physiology)
