"The book covers the process that a patient has to go through to get a liver transplant. It adds a personal touch by introducing a liver transplant recipient's own words and feelings regarding the process. This feature helps the reader empathize with the patient. I like this book. It represents exactly what we teach our patients in our pre-transplant class and it would be a great resource for patients."

“There are very few patient-oriented texts that so concisely and thoroughly address the complexities of liver transplantation, including the waiting, organ allocation and specific surgical issues.”
