"This is an in-depth review of the new and evolving research into Helicobacter pylori. The purpose is to help readers better understand a complex organism that can cause many people gastrointestinal issues and the future of treatment. The audience is gastroenterologists and researchers with a keen interest in H.pylori. ... This well-done book discusses many important topics related to H.pylori research, and provides a better understanding of this important organism." (Noah Settergren, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2016)
