"Editors S. Nakada and M. Pearle collaborated with nearly 30 experts and provided the reader with a comprehensive textbook that aimed to focus on minimally invasive treatments of urinary stones and the technical challenges related to such treatments. ... This practical textbook ... is well-illustrated and provides the reader with an excellent survey which is useful for both young and experienced urologists." (European Urology Today, December 2013 - January 2014)
"The authors aim to provide an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of the surgical management of nephrolithiasis, including technical details and management of complications. ... a useful resource for those currently in training and those already in clinical practice. ... the book is valuable for general urologists as well as subspecialists who focus primarily on complex stone disease. ... It is a valuable resource for any urologist treating patients with nephrolithiasis, both basic and complex cases. This concise, evidence-based book is a must-have in contemporary practice."
