Critics Review
4 Stars! “This physical textbook is an imposing, two-volume set of hardbound books, each over 1,000 pages… [and] extensive additional illustrations and references…in the online edition. The book acts as ‘a compendium of Nephrology,’ covering essentially all aspects of the relevant medical care and basic science. Its excellent, thorough content accomplishes that goal, and it is still the definitive textbook in the fields of nephrology and renal physiology…. Most usefully, the condensed discussion of treatment for glomerular diseases in prior editions has been expanded from two omnibus chapters into seven different sections covering individual diseases…. Though intimidating in its length, this is an accessible and uniformly well-written, well-designed textbook. The current text appears to be the best in this field in terms of depth and clarity…. It has historically been the key title in the field of nephrology, and that remains the case with the updates in the twelfth edition.” Review by Sam Beavin, MD (University of Kentucky College of Medicine), ©Doody’s Review Service, 2026. Doody’s Score: 94, 4 Stars!
