This is a personal account of the British contribution to
gastroenterology over the last 200 years. It covers the common
diseases of the oesophagus and stomach, followed by coeliac
disease, inflammatory bowel disease and functional gastrointestinal
disease. The final section discusses the British impact on
endoscopy. Each disease is followed from its earliest description
and is based on monographs and journal articles. The aim of the
book is to explain why and how physicians and surgeons have managed
to achieve so much during this time and with this in mind the
author has interviewed over 100 people who have actually made this
history. Whenever possible anecdotes and personal recollections are
included. The illustrations are by the author. It includes: section
one the oesophagus; section two the stomach and duodenum; section
three the small intestine coeliac disease; section four
inflammatory bowel disease; Section five functional bowel disease;
and, section six gastrointestinal endoscopy.
