It is concise yet comprehensive, written by well-known and well-published, credible authorities. It will be useful not just to the intended audience of gastroenterologists and GI surgeons, but also to all physicians involved in the care of patients with pancreatitis. Most books try to cover all aspects of this complex condition in a summary fashion, which is not possible. This book fills in the gaps by providing a focused, comprehensive review including latest evidence and guidelines. 5 Stars!\" (\u003ci\u003eDoody Enterprises\u003c\/i\u003e July 2017)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is a definitive and authoritative work that is quite manageable to read, understand and process.\u003cbr\u003eBecause of that, a reader will return to it often, extending its benefits.
