Pediatric Gastroenterology 51 Clinical Questions & Answers is written in a different style to match the next generation of healthcare providers by providing point-by-point answers to varied situations they will encounter in their practice. It also provides suggested reading to get mastery on that particular question. The contributing authors are from multiple countries but know the local conditions and lay of the land, as the questions not only pertain to infectious conditions that the clinicians are so used to seeing but also many inflammatory and functional conditions that are taking up a lot of practice time and the care that these children need. The book is well versed to serve as a valuable source of knowledge to healthcare providers in many parts of the world.
