Reviews

This book provides a fairly thorough evaluation of gastrointestinal motility, a subspecialty of gastroenterology that has been gaining increasing interest in recent years. ... Although intended for practicing clinicians, the book can be useful for trainees as an overview and reference. ... This is a good quality book. (Nicole E. Pisapia, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2017)
