Reviews

...an excellent book to update a professional’s knowledge, very useful for student nurses and trainee doctors alike.
*The Journal of the Bladder and Bowel Foundation*

As to be expected in the Fast Facts series, the textbook is richly illustrated, contains many tables and clearly marked or highlighted by key points, key references and decisional trees. We recommend this textbook for urologists whether they are still in training or already certified.
*European Urology Today*

This is an excellent review of the fundamentals of assessment and management of the lower urinary tract for both practicing urologists and nonspecialists, who can use it to identify and initiate treatment for a patient with a common lower urinary tract dysfunction.
*Doody's Review Service*

"Fast Facts: Bladder disorders and Fast Facts: Glaucoma are balanced reviews that incorporate an optimal level of detail for the targeted audiences and provide a good mix of visuals and text."
