Mayberry (Leicester General Hospital), a UK gastroenterologist who edits The Postgraduate Medical Journal, introduces 20 chapters by specialists mostly from the UK. The president of the Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine, the volume's sponsor, explains the Fellowship's long-standing mission to "resuscitate" postgraduate medical training in Britain. Contributors review up-to-date information on the management of gastrointestinal disorders from alcoholic liver disease to inflammatory bowel disease. They also present information on the GI side-effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (though the withdrawal of Vioxx from the market occurred post-publication), and the GI inflammatory process for non-specialists. Chapters include review questions. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Drug-induced mucosal damage is of immense importance in gastroenterology. It is imperative that clinicians understand how these lesions come about, what the sometimes devastating consequences are and what can be done to prevent or to treat such calamities. Drug-induced damage is bound to increase in the future as the population ages and polypharmacy becomes the rule instead of the exception. Hopes for improvement were shattered when the long term consequences of COX-2 inhibition became available. Is the COX-1/COX-2 concept truly obsolete? Several issues are discussed by European experts in the second part of the book. What the clinician should know about non acid, weakly acid or biliary reflux is discussed in depth. Novel developments of gastrointestinal neuropathies and motor disorders concentrate on IBS, pseudo-obstruction and faecal incontinence. Our surgical colleagues will certainly be interested in novel minimally invasive procedures. Finally all will learn from a critical analysis of novel diagnostic imaging modalities.
The brain-gut connection has been increasingly implicated in biopsychosocial well-being.

Timely and accessibly written, this book provides a unique, comprehensive introduction to psychogastroenterology, offering a step-by-step guide to evidence-based psychological treatment protocols.
