Abstract
As in previous reviews, no attempt has been made to give either an inclusive or a comprehensive survey of the literature dealing with diseases of the liver and the biliary tract during 1940. Instead I have selected topics that have been the subject of special advances or particular study during the year. In many cases detailed reviews have been published elsewhere, and I have referred to them instead of attempting to give a comprehensive bibliography in this article.
