This book is an excellent summary to the recent understanding of anatomy and the pathogenetic hypotheses of preneoplastic breast disease. Although life is not always as simplistic as that, these hypotheses can help us to understand more on the biology of these disease, incluing the rationale behind the use of immunohistochemistry and their potential pitfalls.The hypotheses can also stipulate further research on these diesease, which further improve our understanding of these breast diseases. The description of the entities are generally adequate. Although targeted mainly to pathologists, this book is also a good reference for surgeons who manage breast diseases, as chapters on management and radiological features of these preneoplastic lesions are also included.

A concise up to date in breast pathology, including molecular biology, with a nice reference list that supports very well the content of the chapters.
