Over the past twenty years, thousands of physicians have come to depend on Yamada’s Textbook of Gastroenterology. Its encyclopaedic discussion of the basic science underlying gastrointestinal and liver diseases as well as the many diagnostic and therapeutic modalities available to the patients who suffer from them was—and still is—beyond compare. This new edition provides the latest information on current and projected uses of major technologies in the field and a new section on diseases of the liver. Plus, it comes with a fully searchable CD ROM of the entire content.
For its proportion and the extent at which subjects are treated, this book can be considered as a kind of “bible” for professionals in the field of pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition. Overall, it has a less strictly didactic approach than the previous one and you can find more detailed and up-to-date information. At the same time, the list of contents at the beginning of the book is very clear and allows readers to easily identify the various sections one may want to focus on. I appreciate the fact that the book is dedicated to the memory of David Bransky, who unexpectedly died during the drafting phase of this book. To conclude, this book is really excellent and I highly recommend it.
Each chapter is dedicated to a specific disorder and topics include peptic ulcers, gastric cancer, Hepatitis, irritable bowel syndrome, cirrhosis of the liver, pancreatitis and liver disease.
