    Biography

    Dr Kinesh Patel, BA(Hons) MB BS MRCP Specialty Registrar, Gastroenterology, St Mark's Hospital, London, UK

    "… very readable with a simple layout, readable typeface, simple illustrations and a smattering of key radiographs throughout. All specialties are covered comprehensively in a system-based format … this book is ideal if you need a quick revision or reference companion at home or on the wards. I can also imagine it being useful on the wards for peer-based learning if you wanted to quiz each other on important facts."
