This book reports on the papers and discussion at a symposium of which the date and site are unfortunately not men- tioned in the book. (On inquiry, the pub- lishers tell us that it was held at the Welsh National School of Medicine on 7, 8, and 9 July 1975 and that it was a Postgraduate Course in paediatric gastro- enterology organised by J. A. Dodge).It covers development of the gut in the fetus and young children; infancy and its problems; diarrhoea; abdominal pain, and constipation.It conveniently brings together much valuable scattered infor- mation, but the price seems high for a paperback.
