Helicobacter pyloriin the 21st Century

Unlike books that have been written before about Helicobacter pylori, this volume, 30 years after Warren’s original description of a case at Royal Perth Hospital, presents a mature understanding of how the bacterium colonizes its host and causes disease. As such, it will stay on my laboratory sh...
