Table of Contents: Absorption and Secretion Commendation Quotes: The definitive, one-stop resource on every aspect of gastroenterology and hepatology Review Quotes: "This encyclopedia is a truly unique, remarkable, and impressive work. The author, contributors, and publisher are to be congratulated on such a massive undertaking. The book is well organized and cross referenced. It is a great addition to any medical school or medical center library. One of the unique features of this book is that it comes in an ebook version, which makes it interactive and accessible from anywhere in this age of extreme dependency on digital media. The lack of colored images in the print version made some illustrations (in particular high-resolution, histological, and pathological images) less clear. Nevertheless, it is pleasantly surprising and refreshing to see how useful, well written, and easy to read and follow this textbook is. The first edition was published in 2003. Since then, there has been revolutionary progression in the field of gastroenterology and hepatology at all levels and surge in translational and pathophysiology research, let alone the ever expanding diagnostic and therapeutic options currently available. Therefore, a new edition that covers and reflects the aforementioned progress is a welcome replacement of the first edition." --Doody
