"If multiple authorship is a mark of quality, this book is a must-read. With 189 authors covering the oncology of the gastrointestinal tract from the esophagus to the anus, as well as the pancreas, hepatobiliary system, and peritoneum, the book is comprehensive indeed." (The New England Journal of Medicine, March 2009)
"Written by the leading international experts in the field, it sets the standard in clinical practice." (Doody's Reviews)
"The book is intended for multidisciplinary meetings dealing with tumors of the digestive system, a worthy objective. This is great book that will hopefully set a standard for a new type of book that reflects today's multidisciplinary approach to gastrointestinal tumors." (Patrick Mosler, MD, PhD, @Doody's Review Service)
"The editors of 'Gastrointestinal oncology: a critical
multi-disciplinary approach' are to be congratulated on
bringing together an exceptional array of international experts as
authors of this textbook. Set out in three sections -
Gastroesophageal, colorectal and hepatobiliary - and 25
chapters it is an encyclopaedia for professionals involved in all
aspects of these diseases. Clinicians who wish to find out more
about the epidemiology, risk factors, diagnosis, treatment and
palliation of gastrointestinal tumours, common or rare, will now be
able to turn to a single authoritative textbook."
-Professor Mike Richards, National Cancer Director for
England
