Praiseworthy for the breadth and depth of its content and its ability to remain up to date. It serves the needs not only of the beginning student, the pathologist in training, but all practitioners of medicine with intellectual curiosity. - Modern Pathology, review of previous edition
Bound to retain its standing as the definitive source for learning, or relearning, the principles of the pathologic basis of disease. - Advances in Anatomic Pathology, review of previous edition
This book is even shorter than before. That is?really impressive. I cannot but admire this book, which I keep re-reading since I entered?Pathology in 1966. Wow, ?it shows that even a first class?book can be improved - hard to believe but true.?It is very readable and even funny in some places. The text is nicely laid out and the book looks less bulky than the previous edition. The illustrations are excellent. Even though the book is definitely for the new generations, I am sure that it will be welcomed by senior pathologists trying to keep up with the times - I doubt that I am the?only old timer eager to?re-read it. - Ivan Damjanov, MD, PhD, author of Pathology Secrets and Pathophysiology
