"It seems clear that the writers' aim to appeal to non-specialists has been successful. Any healthcare professional, working in hospital or non-hospital settings, working with the frail elderly (at particular risk of CKD) and staff working in acute surgical areas will find a lot of easy to understand information here. Any professional, previously intimidated by renal disease management, will find that this book demystifies this import area of practice." (Nursing Times, 5 June 2014) "Overall, this is a thoughtful review of general considerations for treatment options, as well as a needed overview of the psychosocial aspects of living with kidney disease." (Doody's. 4 October 2013)
