This book represents the culmination of the major aspect of Dr.
Margot Shiner's professional career. It was she who devised the
technique of jejunal biopsy which opened up whole new fields of
small intestinal research, including microbiology, immunology,
histochemistry and histopathology, thus greatly expanding our
knowledge of fundamental aspects of absorptive patho physiology.
Later the application of electron microscopy demonstrated the
individual cell with its mechanisms both for absorption and for the
production of so many chemicals such as mucus, enzymes and
hormones. Like the vision from the peak in Darian, it opened up new
worlds. The contribution to our understanding of cell structure and
function has been greater than the direct elucidation of specific
diseases but nevertheless, there are pointers to different
mechanisms which could have wide applications. It is a book which
serves a double function: On the one hand it is highly technical
and a publication for the super expert, recording new landmarks of
knowledge and interpretation. On the other hand, it is a book which
can indeed fire the imagination of the rising generation of
gastroenterologists, paediatricians, pathologists and medical
scientists. Having seen the emergence of the art and science of
present-day gastro enterology within my professional lifetime and
having been able to provide the facilities for her work in the very
early days, it is with particular pleasure and pride that I write
this foreword."
