Here is a volume in the Illustrated Colour Text series covering gastroenterology and liver disease. The book, following the usual format of the series, has double page spreads, each covering a distinct topic. There are ten sections, and the contents are organised by presenting problem. The book incorporates all the usual features of the series--colour line drawings, diagnostic algorithms, colour clinical photos (including endoscopic investigations) and other radiological images, as well as text features such as summary boxes.

Attractive visual layout with lots of colour illustrations
Organised by presenting problem - this will mirror the case based/problem-solving approach of many medical schools and will complement the traditional disease-based presentation of existing textbooks like Davidson and Kumar.
In an established and successful series
Will be an attractive purchase for pharmaceutical companies.
