From the book reviews: This is a comprehensive book on dyslipidemias in kidney disease. ... This is an excellent tool for nephrologists, whether clinical or research oriented. It is also of great interest to internists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, and all healthcare providers who have a particular interest in lipid-related disorders. ... It is fully updated and summarizes the rapid advances made in the field of lipid disorders, with a focus on coexisting diseases within nephrology. The tables and graphs are appropriate and add meaningful information. (Fnu Salahuddin, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2014)
