Reviews

From the reviews of the third edition: "This book is dedicated to clinicians interested in urodynamics but without experience in this field … gynecologists, pediatricians, neurologists and also nurses. … The aim of Paul Abrams is that the reader will appreciate both the value and the limitations of urodynamic investigations, and will obtain the necessary practical advice on the use of the appropriate equipment in the correct situations. … this book is a very interesting tool for any clinician who has interest in urodynamic investigations." (Dr. V. Kepenne, Acta Chirurgica Belgica, Issue 1, 2007)
