Synopsis

New Insights in Vertebrate Kidney Function presents an important collection of review articles describing a multiplicity of approaches (whole animal, tissue, cellular and molecular) which have provided insight into the strategy and tactics for renal functional studies. Each chapter presents the most up-to-date research set in the context of our current appreciation of vertebrate renal structure and function. Coverage is comprehensive, ranging from studies in fish to mammals. Recent developments in our understanding of the regulation and integration of renal processes are considered throughout, and find particular focus in the final three chapters.
