Reviews

The discussion of malignancy-associated glomerulopathies is very comprehensive and I also liked the chapter on paraneoplastic glomerulopathies. The most exciting part of the book is the information on developments in cancer biology and the new treatments that are available -- antibodies and agents with new targets. There are some histologic and radiologic images but the book would benefit from more and better images. -- Doody's

Author Information

"This book reflects Dr Cohen's active interest in the challenging overlap area of nephrology and oncology, deriving in turn from his interest and multiple studies of kidney disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (""bone marrow transplant""). He studied medicine at the Universite de Liege, in Belgium and is a member of the Central Society for Clinical Research, the American Society of Nephrology, the Societe Francophone de Dialyse, and the Radiation Research Society. His research bridges the clinic and the lab, bringing the best of each to the other."
