“This is a well-written book on endoscopy, primarily for endoscopists who take care of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. … This is an excellent resource for endoscopists who want to understand all aspects of diagnosing and treating patients with inflammatory bowel disease. It also will benefit general practitioners who take care of these patients.” (Henrique Jose Fernandez, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2018)
