From the reviews of the second edition:
This brief handbook of renal pathology, almost a pocket-sized book, could be easily carried around by busy nephrologists or renal pathologists. ... Pathologists and their trainees, nephrologists, and renal transplant surgeons are the intended audience. It also could be used by medical students and residents in internal medicine, nurses, and pharmacists. ... This is a wonderful little book that will appeal to practicing nephrologists, nephropathologists, and renal transplant surgeons, as well as their trainees.
