The Lahey Clinic guides, all in the 100 Questions and Answers about X format, provide overviews of gastroenterological disorders in a way that is accessible to non-medical readers. The level of detail is good for a non-medical reference book, and the language is sufficiently technical to align with medical reports and resources. Terminology is defined in sidebars. I would have liked more extensive coverage of liver transplantation, but Lahey does have a book solely devoted to this topic. I appreciate that both of these volumes are current and cite reasonably up-to-date studies. 100 Questions and Answers about Hepatitis C is a good starting point for people unfamiliar with the disease. Readers may want to follow it with a more technical or more specific book, depending upon their reasons for reading.
