Fatty Liver Diseases: NASH and Related Disorders is an unusual book: it combines a practical approach for students and physicians concerned with the problem with a clear overview on the causative mechanisms.

The goal of this book is to present a diagnostic framework on which a learner can build his or her “databank” of diagnostic facts. The format of each systems-based chapter consists of an “Introduction,” “Physiology and Mechanics,” “Functional Anatomy,” “History,” “Physical Examination,” “Synthesizing a Diagnosis,” “Laboratory and Imaging,” and “When to Refer.” We have attempted in the “Synthesizing a Diagnosis” sections to present the material in tabular form.

Colorful atlas of eye diseases which has step-by-step guidance of ophthalmological physical examination, invasive and non-invasive diagnostics. It will be helpful to anyone who wants to pass university course of eye diseases and final exams successfully.
This book is intended primarily for medical students and junior doctors preparing for examinations (regardless of whether they are medical or surgical). In addition we hope that general practitioners and non-ophthalmic consultants who care for patients with eye diseases will find this book invaluable in its simplicity and clarity. We have tried to create a balanced, up to date, practical book. Blackwell’s have supported our need for extensive colour pictures and diagrams which characterize this ‘visual’ subject.
