Springer, 2019. — 318 p. — ISBN: 978-3-319-92767-1This book fills a void in the market for specialists who are working in areas without the support of gastroenterologists.

The book addresses this problem by providing clear instructions on the diagnosis, medical management and on-going treatment of the most common disease patterns encountered in gastroenterology. Written by leading experts in their respective fields, it offers up-to-date evidence and insights into these conditions to enable adequate decision-making and safe management of these conditions.Functional Dyspepsia and the Irritable Bowel Syndrome
