“This book is easily the most complete and detailed on the subject of CBD/PBM. … Although an audience is not explicitly identified, and students and medical trainees may benefit from the book, it is most appropriate for practitioners and advanced hepatobiliary subspecialists. It would be an excellent resource for such physicians and researchers. … I enjoyed this book and it will be an excellent resource on this disease.” (David C. Yu, Doody's Book Reviews, September, 2018)
