Recenzii

A focused, easy-to-read and informative text... It is a fascinating insight into clinical gastroenterology, an excellent and enjoyable read and an education for all levels of gastroenterologists from ST1 to consultant. The fact that each 3-4 page case is completely independent means that it is an excellent book to browse and dip into in the spare 10-15 min that occasionally occur each day.
