    Three associate editors of international repute — Dr. Roberto Bergamaschi, Dr. R. John Nicholls, and Dr. Victor W. Fazio — have participated in the creation of this updated volume, but the hand of Dr. Marvin L. Corman can be recognized throughout. This gold standard reference is often referred to as the "bible" of the specialty.

    From Doody's Reviews: "This is the definitive book in colorectal surgery and the diseases of the colon, rectum, and anus in general. It is an exhaustive reference that spans the history of the subject right up to the most current and contemporary treatments and research. As is well known, everything is covered in this book.… This is a fantastic edition of a legendary book."

    From Annals of Surgery: "The Corman textbook, now in its sixth edition, will no doubt become the daily resource and indispensable companion for colon and rectal surgeons and fellows and an essential reference book for the general surgeon whose practice includes colon and rectal diseases."

    From Colorectal Disease: "Those practising surgeons, at all levels of training, and whether a dedicated colorectal specialist or more generalist, with a desire for a well-illustrated, succinct reference work that offers the benefits of Internet access, will greatly appreciate this book. The pearls of wisdom within mean that far from being obsolete, the textbook is more valuable now than ever."

    From Techniques in Coloproctology: "As in the previous editions, Dr. Corman's knowledge, wisdom, and experience permeates this textbook and guides the new generation of colorectal surgeons. He not only provides an enjoyable learning experience but also exhorts us to think and to critically appraise the enormous amount of information available to us (read more)."
