Review quotes

"a valuable addition to the currently existing bench books on bone pathology.

...a colourful illustrated quick guide for bone tumour diagnosis, written in a practical way

A colourful illustrated quick guide for bone tumour diagnosis, written in a practical way.

Bone pathology is one of the most subspecialized and challenging areas of pathology. The senior editors and authors of this book are well recognized and highly regarded bone and soft tissue pathologists and radiologists. This book makes the authors' knowledge and their approach to bone pathology accessible in an organized and systematic fashion. Clear subheadings and the bulleted format make the book easy to read. The wealth of high quality radiology, gross, and microscopic images is certainly a strong point. Anyone even remotely interested in bone pathology will find this an invaluable addition to their resources." -Nooshin Dashti, M.D (Mayo Clinic) Doody’s Score: 100 – 5 Stars!
