Offers a guide to the management of common conditions in gastroenterology. The first section covers approaches to common clinical problems. Further sections include a compendium of gastroenterology, emergencies, and commonly used drugs. This work is useful to those involved in the care of patients with gastrointestinal diseases.
Busy clinicians need easily accessible information falling into two broad categories: diagnosis and management of patients with particular groups of symptoms; and comprehensive information on defined clinical problems. With this in mind, the Oxford Handbook of Gastroenterology and Hepatology has been structured in a unique way. The first section covers approaches to clinical problems detailing 29 of the most common problems in GI medicine, including infectious disease and gastrointestinal problems in developing countries. A key section of the handbook is a unique A-Z compendium of the specialty which includes information on 100s of topics in gastroenterology, from Abetalipoproteinaemia to Zieve's syndrome. Colour coded links enable readers to find information in related chapters quickly. Further sections include emergencies, and commonly used drugs used in gastroenterology and hepatology, with emphasis on practice tips and common complications. The result of this new approach is a handbook which is practical and informative, while being a pleasure to use.It is an essential guide to the management of common conditions and will be invaluable to all those involved in the care of patients with gastrointestinal disease.

Stuart Bloom was educated at Oxford and St Thomas' Hospital, London. He trained in general medicine and gastroenterology in London, Oxford and Liverpool and spent four years in full time research at the Institute of Molecular Medicine in Oxford. He was appointed Consultant Physician and Gastroenterologist to UCL hospitals in July 1996. Within gastroenterology, he is particularly interested in the field of inflammatory bowel disease and research into its underlying mechanisms. George Webster is a Consultant in Gastroenterology and Pancreaticobiliary Medicine at UCLH, and an Honorary Senior Lecturer in Hepatobiliary Medicine within the Department of Medicine at UCL. His areas of clinical and research interest include hepatology, pancreaticobiliary medicine, and interventional endoscopy (particularly ERCP). To date he has published 20 peer reviewed papers, 6 review articles, and 7 book chapters. He has a longstanding interest in education, including the co-ordination of undergraduate hepatology/gastroenterology teaching at UCLH, regular lecturing for the MRCP exam, and consultant-directed teaching on a number of courses, including within UCL and The Royal College of Physicians.
