A good knowledge of renal physiology is essential to the
understanding of many disease states. The purpose of the book is to
set out the principles of renal physiology and normal renal
function. Now in its 30th year of continuous publication, this new
edition offers a logical progression through renal physiology and
pathophysiology. In addition, the anatomy, physiology, pharmacology
and pathology of the kidney are covered -- making it highly
suitable for system based courses. This 5th edition has been
extensively revised and features a wealth of new and widely
accepted information about kidney function. This includes our
understanding of the role of the glycocalyx and structural proteins
in glomerular filtration; details of tubular transport, tight
junctions and paracellular transport; and an update of the loops of
Henle functioning. Principles of Renal Physiology, 5th Edition is a
concise and easily readable text ideal for undergraduate medical
and medical science students.
