Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Clásico
Los Profesores Halperin y Goldstein de Canadá, han escrito un libro que alcanza la altura de un clásico. Aquí se destila una vida dedicada a la enseñanza y a la investigación. El libro está organizado en torno a casos y problemas clínicos. Tiene sus respectivas respuestas. Y siempre tiene mucho que enseñar. Ciertamente, sería aún mejor si tuviéramos un medio electrónico, donde esta obra encomiable no pierda vigencia.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An indispensible part of my clinical library.
As a nephrologist and educator, I can say that this is the absolute best book available for learning and teaching fluid, electrolytes, and acid base. Takes a pathophysiologic approach throughout that facilitates true understanding of the subject. Drs. Haperin and Goldstein are the ultimate clinical educators in this area.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very good book for review of acid-base and electrolyte physiology.
I was very happy with this book. The acid base chapters are excellent. Highly recommended.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best text on integrative physiology out there
This is probably one of the best textbooks on integrative physiology involving electrolytes on the market. Dr. Halperin is a phenomenal instructor and his prose makes learning interactive and interesting. Electrolytes are key to clinical medicine and surprisingly not very well understood by the medical masses. This textbook is full of examples, questions, and pearls.

The abundance of questions with thorough explanations is the strength of this book. An understanding of electolytes ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent guideline to clinical acid-base physiology
Using patient-based problem solving, this text makes even the most difficult points of acid-base physiology clear. The writing style is breezy and entertaining and the layout allows you to pop in and out of various sections without the need to start from scratch. I have used the text for teaching medical students, residents and physician assistants. There is something in here for everyone. The authors' philosophy is obviously that acid-base problems are giant jig-saw puzzles and that you might ... Read More
