The Handbook of Gastrointestinal Motility and Disorders of Gut-Brain Interactions, 2nd Edition, edited by Satish S.C. Rao, Henry Parkman, and Richard McCallum, provides a clinical reference handbook for diagnostic evaluation and clinical management. Published by Academic Press, this reference details gastrointestinal motility disorders and disorders of gut-brain interactions across adult, adolescent, and pediatric patient populations.

The text systematically arranges clinical disorders by condition and gut anatomy to assist diagnostic decision-making. Coverage progresses through primary physiological domains, addressing esophageal motility, gastric motor abnormalities, achalasia, gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia, lower intestinal dysmotility, irritable bowel syndrome, slow transit constipation, and fecal incontinence.

To support practical application in diagnostic testing, each chapter features color illustrations of motility tests alongside step-by-step instructions for performing and interpreting diagnostic procedures. This structure equips motility laboratory personnel, surgeons, internists, researchers, and academic faculty with technical protocols for conducting and analyzing physiological studies.
