Rezensionen

"Prateek Sharma and Richard Sampliner have assembled a superb,
comprehensive and up to date textbook on Barrett's esophagus and
esophageal adenocarcinoma. There are very few problems with this
book. The section on the management of esophageal adenocarcinoma is
brief and clearly directed to gastroenterologists rather than
surgeons or oncologists (as is most of the textbook). ...This is an
excellent textbook for anyone with an interest in esophageal
disease or gastrointestinal cancer. It should be an essential
textbook for any medical library."

-J. Patrick Waring, Atlanta GA

Practical Gastroenterology, January 2002

"Barrett's Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma is a
comprehensive collection of chapters written by leading authorities
in the field. It has many fine qualities. The editors clearly
demonstrate that the study of Barrett's esophagus lends itself to a
multidisciplinary approach. Each chapter is introduced by a
background section that acquaints the reader with the concepts
underlying the material that follows. As a result, the book does a
remarkable job of presenting knowledge about Barrett's esophagus to
a general audience.

The figures and tables are excellent, the color plates are of
good quality, and the text is lucid, succinct and comprehensive.
This superb work effectively summarizes all the current topics
pertinent to Barrett's esophagus. It is comprehensive yet not
cumbersome and introduces the reader to a wide range of
disciplines. Gastroenterologists will reap great rewards from
reading this book, but it also reaches out to a larger audience and
is a model of how the study of a single disease lends itself to
many different specialities."
