This is the latest in a series of volumes based on a postgraduate course in gastroenterology held annually in Oxford, which is now established as an authoritative synthesis of recent developments in the field. It provides consultants and junior staff, including those who are not specialized in gastroenterology, with an informed and up-to-date account of selected topics of current interest in relation to the normal functioning of the digestive system and its diseases. This edition covers problems in the management of liver disease, pathological aspects of viral hepatitis, and new endoscopic techniques, as well as containing what might well be described as a little symposium on the new salicylates in ulcerable colitis.
