Review

“This is a true atlas of endoscopy. Without question; its strength lies in the layout and depth of focus. … The pictures are excellent and the format allows for a progression through an entire procedure from the standpoint of normal anatomy to pathological states. It is a very nice ebook that would complement the library of a newly minted endoscopist who lacks the ability to identify every nuanced finding that only comes with years of practice.” — Peter Nau; Doody’s Book Reviews; November; 2018
