Editorial Reviews

Description: This updated edition is a concise review of key urologic disorders encountered in both the inpatient and outpatient settings. This edition is structured to provide a quick review of a problem, including background information, definition of terms, and differential diagnosis. Emphasis is then directed towards making the diagnosis and outlining therapeutic options.

Purpose: The purpose is similar to that of the first edition published nine years ago, which is to present urologic problems and therapeutic principles.

Audience: This manual, as a result, serves as a valuable source of information for the medical student and urology house officer taking care of patients. Up-to-date and useful information is also provided for primary care providers who may have the initial encounter with patients with urologic complaints.

Features: The common problems encountered in urology are covered, including radiologic imaging, diagnosis and treatment of malignancy, urinary calculi, erectile dysfunction, neuro-urology, and adrenal and renal disease. Salient features include the outline format, which make scanning the book for information easier. Furthermore, the updated information of this second edition is an appropriate reflection of the expanding database in a multitude of urologic fields.

Assessment: This manual should serve as a valuable and often used resource for students and residents to refer to on a daily basis.

Review

"Meredith Campbell would be proud of this newest edition...Nearly 4000 pages of practical information [cover] every aspect of urology...With the introduction of new techniques and minimally invasive approaches, we need these volumes to bring us up to speed." JAMA

"Everything a physician needs to know about urologic disease is contained in these pages. All Urologists should have Campbell's Urology in their office as a definitive reference. Also recommended to all Health Science libraries as a general reference text."

The Electric Review, January-February 2005

"The fact that Campbell's has been around for five decades evidences how invaluable this text has become to the medical community. Aside from its value to practicing physicians, Professors of Medicine have used the book as a teaching tool to help residents begin to explore the sub-specialty of Urology. The 8th edition should only continue the tradition of using Meredith Campbell's treatise to instruct aspiring physicians."
