"Beautifully produced, masterfully written and edited, critically reshaped and updated for the 21st century, it remains the book of choice for most pathology professors. I see it as an American classic, but also as a modern textbook for new generations of medical students. Highly recommended." Reviewed by Ivan Damjanov, MD (University of Kansas Medical Center) Doody's Score: 100, 5 Stars!
