A Colour Handbook of Gastroenterology

This is a revised edition of a convenient and user-friendly handbook. Combining the advantages of a colour atlas with those of a short text, the authors provide systematic coverage of the diseases and disorders of the digestive tract. Each condition is described and illustrated on a single page or spread of pages. The first edition of the book was praised for its compact approach and high quality colour photos, imaging and diagrams. The second edition includes developments in investigation and management, and over 200 new illustrations, mainly reflecting refinements in endoscopy and other imaging techniques. Gastroenterology, 2nd edition will appeal to those preparing for higher qualifications in gastroenterology and general medicine, and to general physicians and medical students who want a handy general reference source to problems of the digestive system.
