Synopsis

The most practical, authoritative guide to managing digestive and liver diseases

A Doody's Core Title ESSENTIAL PURCHASE for 2011!

"I found this book contemporary and well written, with knowledgeable authorship and recommend it for a handy reference for students, primary care providers and in a busy practice, but not for detailed evaluations. It certainly is worthwhile spending the $69.95 to have it as a handy reference on the shelf of practitioners."--Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology
