Seldin and Giebisch's The Kidney, Sixth Edition: Physiology and Pathophysiologyprovides a common language for nephrology researchers, fellows and practicing nephrologists to discuss normal and abnormal renal physiology and the development and diagnosis of a wide range of renal diseases. Guided by a team of four distinguished authorities in nephrology, experts from all areas of renal research and practice take readers from the structure and function of normal renal physiology, to the specific cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying disease development, and into the management of renal disease through physiologic regulation. This classic nephrology reference for nearly 30 years combines basic and clinical sciences that provides authoritative, concise and readily accessible information. Academic, medical and pharma researchers save valuable time by quickly accessing the very latest details on renal physiology and pathophysiology as opposed to searching through thousands of journal articles. Presents the most comprehensive, translational source for all aspects of normal renal physiology and pathophysiology of kidney diseases in one reference workOffers clear translational presentations by the top basic and clinical researchers in each specific renal disease, including transplantation, cancer, diabetic nephropathy, preeclampsia and glomerular diseaseIncludes a foreword by Drs. Donald Seldin and Gerhard Giebisch, both world- renowned names in nephrology and editors of previous editions | Seldin And Giebisch's The Kidney by Robert J. Alpern, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
