Product Description:
This book has been created for patients who have decided to make education and research an integral part of the treatment process. Although it also gives information useful to doctors, caregivers and other health professionals, it tells patients where and how to look for information covering virtually all topics related to polycystic kidney disease (also Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease; Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD); Cystic Disease of the Renal Medulla; Cysts - kidneys; Cysts of the Renal Medulla, Congenital; Familial juvenile nephrophthisis), from the essentials to the most advanced areas of research. The title of this book includes the word official. This reflects the fact that the sourcebook draws from public, academic, government, and peer-reviewed research. Selected readings from various agencies are reproduced to give you some of the latest official information available to date on polycystic kidney disease. Given patients' increasing sophistication in using the Internet, abundant references to reliable Internet-based resources are provided throughout this sourcebook.

... if you or someone you know has issues with Polycystic Kidneys! The information is well indexed and will save you a lot of time in locating what the latest and greates theories, innovation, etc... are out there regarding this condition. And believe me, it is much more prevalent than folks realize. A lot of previously diagnosed deaths from strokes turn out to have PKD as a precursor/underlying cause!
This book is not a "cure" or "how to" book. It is a compilation of just about every source imaginable regarding the subject. The format also lends to a logical method of further research.
If you have a need to learn more about this condition and want to get deep into it, this is definitely the book for you. I highly recommend!!
All the best,
Jay
