Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews of the second edition: “This book integrates molecular biology with histopathology and immunopathology routinely used by surgical pathologists in diagnosing endocrine disorders and tumors. … This is ideal for both academic and general practitioners … . Academic pathologists, those who practice general pathology, and endocrinologists interested in pathology will benefit from the book’s useful information. … This is a technically oriented, comprehensive, intellectual, and well-composed book on endocrine pathology with beautiful illustrations and graphs that is useful to a range of pathologists and endocrinologists.” (Mary M. Henry, Doody’s Review Service, March, 2010)
