In this extensively revised second edition, a much more rigorously scientific approach to alcoholic liver disease has been taken to reflect advances in the knowledge of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of liver damage caused by alcohol.
All aspects of the pathology of alcoholic-associated liver injury including metabolic and immunological disturbances, the spectrum of histopathology seen in the liver, which are illustrated by both colour and black and white photographs, are discussed in this book. The chapters on pathogenic mechanisms of alcohol-assisted liver injury (which include liver fibrosis and regeneration) and on factors that increase the risk of alcohol-assisted injury provide new insights and suggest areas for future research. The chapters discussing how to differentiate alcoholic liver disease' and from genetic haemochromatis can be used as a reference source for hepatologists and other medical personnel caring for patients with liver disease. It can be used by hepatologists, gastroenterologists and pathologists with an interest in liver disease.
