This important reference gives a detailed and in-depth review of the various animal models of human liver disorders. Well-reported animal models several human liver diseases such as fatty liver disease (non-alcoholic and alcoholic) to steatohepatitis, cholestasis, fibrosis, cirrhosis and its complications are described. Preclinical models used for studying liver regeneration and liver failure are also discussed. For each model, the characteristic features, brief protocols, relevance, and limitations are provided.
