Reviews
`Review from previous edition This small but very pleasant book covers in a very individual and intelligent manner almost all daily gastrointestinal problems encountered in the clinic and on the wards...The authors are to be congratulated for having produced this must-have handbook which will be appreciated equally by junior doctors in training and by those immersed in busy hospital medical departments.' Digestive and Liver Disease
Overall, for any member of the multidisciplinary team working in this area who need a concise, easy to use reference book this ticks all the boxes. ANTS Bulletin
