This review is from: Tumors of the Ovary, Maldeveloped Gonads, Fallopian Tube, and Broad Ligament: Atlas of Tumor Pathology (Afip Atlas of Tumor Pathology No. 23) (Paperback)

I thought with such a blockbuster title, this book would be impossible to put down... but instaed, at thirty nine thousand pages, it's impossible to pick up! As for the text itself, well, frankly, I had come to expect more from Mr Scully, whose previous efforts in the genre ("Allievial Homochromes: Diminished Thrip Fixage") kept me home on Saturday nights, to the dismay of my cocktail-party-loving wife. I will admit the work contains valuable reference materials, and a lot of good charts, particularly on incipient gonad malformation; but even this topic is drier than one might hope.

I will always anticipate Sully's latest work, though I would suggest that neophytes might be better served picking up any of his 1970s efforts ("Regenerative Dysphasiac Therapies: Slock Nodes" for starters) before picking up this one.
