“This is an excellent reference for transplant professionals. It provides a broad but comprehensive overview of the key clinical components of liver transplantation. In addition to the clinical information, the book provides insights into important administrative components of a successful liver transplant program that are rarely addressed in similar books.” (Kelly Collins, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2017)
