From the book reviews: "Editors S. Campbell and B. Rini, with the support of 40 experts, aimed to come out with an update on recent innovations, focusing on clinical implications. ... A very well-illustrated chapter dealt with various pathological aspects of RCC, including molecular genetics, while another chapter focused on family diseases. ... This textbook offers practical information which is of special interest to all urologists and oncologists involved in RCC management." (European Urology Today, Vol. 25 (3), June-July, 2013) "This is a concise but comprehensive review of renal cell carcinoma from etiology and risk factors to medical and surgical management. ... This is an excellent resource for any practitioner with an interest in renal cell carcinoma. ... this book would appeal to general oncologists, urologists, general surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, nephrologists, internists, family practitioners, fellows, residents, and students. ... It is thorough, clearly written, and logically presented." (Jean Hoffman-Censits, Doody's Book Reviews, February, 2013)
