“This is an easily readable textbook aimed primarily at coloproctology trainees and junior consultants. … It is certainly helpful to trainees preparing for examinations. I enjoyed reading it and it would be of interest to coloproctologists at all levels and also to gastroenterologists.” (Michael J. Hershman, British Journal of Hospital Medicine, Vol. 79 (5), May,2018)
