An easy-to-read writing style that demystifies this difficult subject
Basic science coverage of water and electrolyte physiology, renal physiology, and regulation of water and electrolyte balance

Clinical chapters that quickly guide you through key points of etiology, pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of common disorders

Crystal clear figures and handy tables that summarize key information

End-of-chapter problems that test mastery of the material

NEW IN THIS EDITION:

New sections on endothelin and nitric oxide

State-of-the-art information on the properties of the calcium-sensing receptor

Revised and expanded coverage of the neurologic sequelae of hyponatremia

In-depth discussion of the edematous states, including heart failure, nephrotic syndrome, and cirrhosis
