Andrew Gough, University of Manchester

A fantastic book which is organised extremely well! Typical complaints/conditions are found in individual chapters making it easy to find information; chapters are relatively short and it’s easy to dip into the book when a moment arises – great for revision! The book is well laid out and well written. A particular good feature are the algorithms to guide diagnosis and treatment – these are particularly good in the chapters on common symptoms and signs, which show you how to make decisions on the typical presenting complaints in gasteroentererology and hepatology. It’s a great book (it’s easy to carry too) to use in the clinical setting but perhaps equally useful in pre-clinical studies, particularly for PBL cases.
