Reviews

The purpose is to provide a step-by-step description of organ procurement. This is a worthy goal because the major textbook of transplantation has a rather outdated and very concise review of organ donation. The book does a good job of reviewing the entire process from donor evaluation, to ethical concerns, to technical aspects of the procedure, to organ preservation solutions. This is probably more meaningful for physician assistants and residents/fellows. ... The pictures are excellent. (Krishna G. Putchakayala, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2016)
