Reviews

"...sets the highest standard for similar publications in this field and other disciplines... written in a clear but comprehensive fashion with special attention to meaningful details... exquisitely illustrated... This book can be used as a quick reference or a place to find an unusual fact or to explore a subject extensively... a must in the library of every surgical and pulmonary pathologist." (Human Pathology)

From the reviews of the 1st edition: "This is a hefty and magnificent book; hefty in its size and magnificent in the quality of its contents and production... Virtually every topic in pulmonary pathology is adequately covered in this book; and there is a good index that numbers 20 pages. While all of the chapters are well-written, some are outstanding... The illustrations are almost without exception beautifully reproduced... Every student and all practicing physicians of chest disease (internist, surgeon, radiologist, and pathologist) need an authoritative source of information on pulmonary pathology, and this is the book to turn to." #Mayo Clinic Proceedings#1 "Unquestionably...the best book on pulmonary pathology...a definitive text...of encyclopedic proportions..." #Modern Pathology#2 "This multi-authored, encyclopedic book...is well written, beautifully illustrated, and gorgeously printed...data and material hard to find elsewhere are included here...a cornerstone publication..." #Mayo Clinic Proceedings#3
