The book neatly fills a niche among liver textbooks.
It combines the strengths of chapters written by authorities
with a conscious effort to avoid being encyclopedic.
The first part of the book is devoted to the cell biology
of the liver and the pathophysiology of liver disease.
Chapters on diagnostic studies for liver and biliary
disease follow. The remainder of the book is devoted to
special liver diseases and to questions of liver
transplantation and a chapter on the diagnosis of jaundice.
This book is authoritative, well written and up to date.

The numerous authors and the many short chapters lead to a sense of fragmentation
and the feeling that one is reading an encyclopedia or, at times, a dictionary.
Yet chapters are written by authorities and one can find at a glance bits of
information that are often difficult to locate in other books.
