A must have for Gastroenterology and Hepatology fellows.. by Gaurav Arora (California) 5 Stars
February 18, 2007
A multi-author book edited by two excellent clinicians (Emmet Keeffe, Stanford and Lawrence Friedman, Harvard), this is an excellent read for anyone involved in taking care of patients with liver diseases. It contains information in a succinct, often bulleted form that makes it easy to quickly go through a particular topic. The only thing lacking at this time is new and updated information, especially the management aspect. Overall, however, it is a great source to have. Kudos to the editors for this great handbook!
