This comprehensive text provides an overview of the nervous motor system of the whole gastrointestinal tract, relevant tissue geometry, morphology and biomechanical theory. Separate chapters cover smooth muscle and nerve function including the application to animal and human studies of motility, symptoms and pain, determination of the true resting state, history-dependent properties, and tissue remodeling in disease.
