"This book remains a favorite resource for learning and refreshing on normal histology. Solid knowledge of normal histology is "a must" for any pathologist, and this book is very appealing to busy practicing pathologists and pathology residents due to its relatively short and concise text and abundance of superb images. I highly recommend this book to all surgical pathologists and pathology trainees." -©Doody’s Review Service, 2022, Anamarija Perry, MD (University of Michigan Medical School) Doody's Score: 5 Stars!
