Publishers Preface This monograph presents a comprehensive review of the work of Professor Joan Braganza into the pathogenesis and treatment of chronic pancreatitis as a disease caused by oxidative and particularly electrophilic stress with an emphasis on environmental toxicants as one factor which is part of the balance of damaging and protective cellular forces in the pancreas, liver and other participating organs. This is the second monograph of this type and follows “The Hamster Pancreas” written by Parviz Pour. Both books are published in open access eBook form under a Creative Commons license and are available on the Pancreapedia site. Pancreapedia will from time to time publish eBooks that are more substantive than a review article and where the author prepares the text and secures copyright approval for figures or tables published previously. Publishing can be done at no or low cost to the author. Authors should obtain approval from the Editor before preparing detailed content. As was carried out for this book, the Pancreapedia Editor and staff carry out light copy editing and format the book with final approval by the author. Our books are assigned an ISBN number and can be cited as any other book. We thank the American Pancreatic Association for their support and especially thank Melissa Wu and Juliana Lam, two students from the University of Michigan School of Information who served as Content/Community Manager for the Pancreapedia and were responsible for taking the edited content and preparing the book you see here.
