Summary

The first major text to link the discoveries of basic biology to the understanding and clinical management of liver diseases, The Liver: Biology and Pathobiology has long been a classic in gastroenterology and hepatology. Now, this landmark work has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect recent groundbreaking achievements in the laboratory and clinic. More than 100 world-renowned investigators provide a definitive account of current concepts on the structure and function of the liver and the mechanisms underlying liver diseases. This edition has been pared down to a smaller, more user-friendly size and focused more sharply on the most important advances. A Brandon-Hill recommended title.
