Reviews
"An indispensable bench text...Well worth the price, and it is recommended with enthusiasm." --JAMA
"Should have a place on the shelf of every surgical pathologist." --American Journal of Clinical Pathology
"Unquestionably the best surgical pathology textbook available."--Modern Pathology
If I were to recommend only one book (albeit in two volumes) for a histopathology trainee or department to buy, then this would be it.
