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.
