  • Chapter

Part of the book series: People and Ideas ((PEOPL))

Abstract

Comparative studies have played an important historical role in the development of the principles of renal physiology and play an even more important role today. At the same time, comparative studies in renal physiology have been among the most significant scientifically of all comparative work.
