Wow! What a nice book! Of course the authors’ reputation is a good enough reason to want it but the impressive list of contributors can only reinforce my first impression: there is a lot of work and good science in its 1012 pages. In fact, serious general practitioners and specialists alike will find all they need to know about the GI tract…The excellent authors finally put to bed myths such as ‘nil per mouth’ in the case of acute pancreatitis. Almost half of the book is taken up by the diseases of each organ which are thoroughly dealt with and of course there is an impressive list of reference. Got the message? This is a must!
