Book Reviews
Doody's Core Titles® 2022
"I have reviewed previous editions of this book and I am as enthusiastic about this edition as I was about the previous ones. This is an ideal book for those starting to learn renal pathology as residents or even medical students. On the other hand, it also could serve well diagnostic pathologists who do not see too many renal biopsies in their daily practice or those who would like to learn about new developments in nephropathology. In its updated and expanded form, this book should be part pathology departmental libraries as well as central medical libraries."
