About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This is a well written, thorough review of the role that independent living donor advocates (ILDAs) play in evaluating and counseling potential donors. … The book is well written with interesting case studies. … This will be a very useful resource in most transplant centers.” (Anitha Vijaan, Doody’s Book Reviews, March, 2014)
