Summary:

The Oxford Textbook of Hepatology covers the liver and biliary system from basic science to clinical practice and is intended to inform clinicians comprehensively and be up-to-date. The basic science content enables the reader to appreciate the importance of ongoing research. The clinical content covers pathogenesis, etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment. The effects of liver disease on other systems, and the effect of other diseases on the liver and liliary tract are dealt with in sections unique to this book. The book's comprehensive coverage includes rarer disorders, and drug and toxic insults to the liver. This edition has been very substantially improved, augmented, and brought right up to date throughout and there are many new chapters.
