Personally, I have found this book to be one of the most complete and comprehensive GI pathology textbooks out there on the market now. I love it because it also covers the liver, pancreas and biliary tract, making it the prefect one-stop, one volume GI textbook. I will say that at times the pictures are not the largest but the quality is excellent....just my thoughts.

The second (and much updated) edition of this volume is one of the best GI pathology books available. It's a nearly complete reference guide for all gastrointestinal pathology topics, including tubal gut, liver and pancreatico-biliary tree, all in one convenient volume. Each entity is thoroughly discussed, with numerous accompanying images that complement the text and clearly illustrate the relevant pathology. One of the best features of this edition is the online version, which provides easy access to the book from any computer at any location at any time. It's an invaluable resource for a fellow in training or for anyone needing to learn GI pathology.
