Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book is an important contribution to the field. … This well-written, concise, and current book will find a home on the shelves of many hepatologists and gastroenterologists. In addition, because it is so readable, it should be useful for students, GI/hepatology fellows, and midlevel providers dealing with patients and doing research. … This is a concise, updated, and well-written book that belongs in the libraries of healthcare providers and researchers in the field of HCV infection as well as medical institutions.” (Paul Angulo, Doody’s Review Service, November, 2012)
“Chronic Hepatitis C Virus: Advances in Treatment, Promise for the Future represents a timely new text that is focused on the natural history, treatment, and liver transplantation for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. … an excellent background reference for MD and PhD students, trainees, and clinicians in understanding the scientific basis for current management of chronic HCV infection and highlighting key areas for future investigation. … is a welcome addition to any library and true to its name … .” (Richard Sterling and Joseph Lim, Gastroenterology, Vol. 143 (6), 2012)
