Editorial Reviews
Review
`this is an excellent book. It will be greatly appreciated by patients and its existance should be made known to all Renal Patients' Associations. Copies should be available in out-patients departments.' Nephrol Dial Transplant

Product Description
Almost one million people around the world suffer from kidney disease and owe their lives to dialysis or transplantation. Each year in the UK, nearly 10,000 people enter end-stage kidney failure. However over the past 20 years the prospects for treatment and survival have dramatically improved thanks to medical advances. This book has been specially written for these patients and their families. After explaining the causes and symptons of kidney failure, the various treatment options are considered, in particular dialysis and transplantations. Throughout, the book aims to help patients understand how this disease and its treatment will affect them, and to answer many commonly asked questions.
