Presenting patient- and problem-oriented review articles, this
series is designed to keep the internist, general surgeon, and
specialist in gastroenterology and hepatology abreast of the latest
advances in the field.
A fine team of state-of-the-art researcher/clinicians who know
their fields, have contributed to the advancement of knowledge, and
are in a position to judge what is truly important have here pooled
their thoughts in a series of chapters on the cutting edges of
gastroenterology. Four attributes render this volume superior to
other update-oriented publications. The first striking feature,
which is immediately evident upon scanning the table of contents,
is the imaginative choice of subjects, ranging from trav eler's
diarrhea and sexually transmitted GI infections through TPN and
interventional endoscopy to geriatrics and iatrogenic disease. A
second outstanding feature of this volume is its success in balanc
ing basic pathophysiology with practical considerations of clinical
man agement. This is achieved in the discussions of such diverse
topics as acid-peptic diseases, infectious and other diarrheal
syndromes, and hep atitis immunization. Throughout the book we are
led smoothly from basic science principles to specific
recommendations for diagnosis and therapy. This practical emphasis
appears repeatedly and sometimes pro duces a delightful surprise,
such as a chapter on radiology that is not tech nology-based but
instead problem-oriented."
