Hepatology is an ever - changing field. The editors and authors of Hepatology − A Clinical Textbook have made every effort to provide information that is accurate and complete as of thedate of publication. However, in view of the rapid changes occurring in medical science, as well as the possibility of human error, this book may contain technical inaccuracies, typographical or other errors. Readers are advised to check the product information currently provided by the manufacturer of each drug to be administered to verify the recommen ded dose, the method and duration of administration, and contraindications. It is the responsibility of the treating physician who relies on experience and knowledge about the patient to determine dosages and the best treatment for the patient. The informa tion contained herein is provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. The editors and Flying Publisher & Kamps disclaim responsibility for any errors or omissions or for results obtained from the use of information contained herein.

Hepatology - A Clinical Textbook is now in its fifth year and has been substantially updated to reflect the latest medical progress achieved in treating hepatitis C. Because of the timely revisions it remains an up-to-date reference for all relevant aspects of clinical hepatology. This would not have been possible without the continuous contributions of all the authors who have dutifully and elegantly revised and updated their chapters. Again, the book is available in print, but probably more important as a free download at www.hepatologytextbook.com.
