Empowerment in Health Care: How to Improve Patient Care, Increase Employee Job Satisfaction, and Lower Health Care Costs from Ballantine Books Price: $1.67 Customer Review: I first read this book years ago for a college management course.

5.		Dr. Jensen's Guide to Better Bowel Care: A Complete Program for Tissue Cleansing through Bowel Management from Avery Trade Price: $6.89 Customer Review: I had been struggling with bowel toxemia most of my life.

8.		Dysphagia: Clinical Management in Adults and Children from Mosby Price: $70.52 Customer Review: THis book is full of information, but using it in graduate school was difficult. It has 'vocabulary' words in bold but no glossory to look the words up in. Keep the computer near by so you can understand what you are learning. And if you had a teacher like me you will need additional resources to... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis: More Than 200 Healthy, Delicious Recipes the Whole Family Will Love from Cumberland House Publishing Price: $8.05 Customer Review: This isn't a bad cookbook, and the first 4-5 pages have some great information. However, the recipes aren't any different from any other cookbook out there this one just says its for Crohn's and Colitis. I applaud the author for trying to put together something for those of us who struggle with... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

11.		Tell Me What to Eat If I Have Acid Reflux from ReadHowYouWant Price: $16.99 Customer Review: This book was full of information and well written, so if a person has this problem, this book will answer all the questions that your personal Physician does not have the time to explain. To me this is the best book I have ever read on the subject.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

12.		Healthy Digestion the Natural Way: Preventing and Healing Heartburn, Constipation, Gas, Diarrhea, Inflammatory Bowel and Gallbladder Diseases, Ulcers, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and More from Wiley Price: $6.90 Customer Review: Has some information about stomach problems but impractical advice. The massage and hand techniques are all about touching your feet. The other information is about taking alot of herbs and just putting alot of stuff into your body. I was very disappointed in the book.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

13.		Clinical Management of Swallowing Disorders from Plural Publishing Price: $59.21 Customer Review: This book is good for someone who wants to know what is dysphagia. This book is not for someone trying to learn, in great detail, about dysphagia. The book skims through information that should be explained over several chapters. After reading the chapters, I had to use other resources to explain... more info	Customer Rating: 1.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Sleisenger and Fordtran's Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease- 2 Volume Set: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, Management, Expert Consult Premium Edition - Enhanced ... & Liver Disease (Sleisinger / Fordtran)) from Saunders Price: $272.22 Customer Review: I bought this for my second year of GI fellowship. The authors are from top institutions around US and there are a few foreign authors. The 3 chapters I've read so far have all been excellent.

15.		Natural Stomach Care: Treating and Preventing Digestive Disorders with the Best of Eastern and Western Healing Therapies from Avery Trade Price: $4.85 Customer Review: The book is written in a very pleasant style. It contains a uniquely large number of possible ways to deal with most every stomach and intestinal issue. It was state-of-the-art in alternative (more so) and conventional medicine (less so), in 2003. Zinc Carnosine would probably be in his book if... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

16.		Pocket Digestive System Laminated Reference Guide (Quickstudy) from Barcharts Price: $3.95 Customer Review: I just wish I had ordered these before taking my Medical Assisting Course. They are perfect for quick references and because they are laminated they will last and can be used at the place of employment. I acquired them to assist me in preparing for my certification test that is coming up pretty... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

17.		The Healthy Liver & Bowel Book from Celestial Arts Price: $9.99 Customer Review: I found this book much more readable than the previous one I've read by the author - "The liver-cleansing diet". The present one is divided into two parts, one dealing with the liver and the other with the bowels. The author presents comprehensive but easily understandable information... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

18.		Coping with Diverticulitis (Overcoming Common Problems) from Sheldon Press Price: $7.76 Customer Review: This is the only book that actually addresses it. The rest of the books just make a casual reference to diverticulitis in passing. The best book to get, in my opinion, if you have this problem.

19.	[no image]	Tissue Cleansing Through Bowel Management from Bernard Jensen Publisher Price: $27.90 Customer Review: This is a fascinating book.

20.		Mayo Clinic Gastroenterology and Hepatology Board Review, Third Edition from Informa Healthcare Price: $75.97 Customer Review: This is a great book. When I bought it, I was expecting a "typical" board-oriented book (short on many clinical details). Surprisingly, this is a very good source for general review of gastroenterology outside the board preparation. It has all the general information needed at it is very current... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
