Landmarks in Nephrology points the reader to some of the seminal observations which have led to the practice of nephrology as we know it today.For each of its 20 chapters, each dealing with a different area of nephrology, the editors have selected the ten most important papers ever published in that field. These range from observational and experimental studies from the 18th century, which laid the groundwork for our current understanding of
the kidney, through to recent randomised controlled clinical trials. The papers also reflect the emergence of nephrology as a speciality in the last fifty years, stimulated particularly by the
introduction of renal biopsy and then the development of dialysis and transplantation as effective forms of renal replacement therapy. For each paper there is a succinct commentary which highlights the importance of the paper in its historical context, as well as a recommended reading section to encourage the interested reader to explore further.
