of our colleagues to publish this third edition However, as clinicians ourselves who have spent many hours over the past four decades on hospital wards, in the intensive care unit, and in the dialysis unit applying what we have learned from the documented experience of others, we know that this text is a unique source of the knowledge and ingenuity exhibited by the global pediatric nephrology community and, as such, cannot help but to serve as a valuable tool with a singular vii ... authors, we are eternally grateful for their commitment to this project We have been humbled by the
