Editorial Review:
This second edition of a much praised and widely used reference manual on anatomic pathology has been extensively revised and expanded by 70+ international experts to cover the entire curriculum of anatomic pathology for a pathology residency training program, including molecular pathology, human genetics, electron microscopy, microbiology for surgical patho;ogists, transplant pathology, and cytopathology. In addition, the authors have incorporated recent advances in molecular pathology, cytology, and immunohistochemistry, adopted the new series of World Health Organization classification books, and used the 2002 TNM staging system and classifications throughout the book. Several new chapters on transplant pathology, the spleen, non-neoplastic skin diseases, the head and neck, the eye and ocular adnexae, the vulva and vagina, and the penis and scrotum significantly expand the book's coverage. The 2000+ new black-and-white images added to the text are also available in full color on a companion CD-ROM packaged with each book. The comprehensive, evidence-based practice information is presented in an outline format that is clear and easy to follow. A CD-ROM version of the book, including the color images, is sold separately (ISBN 1-59259-926-5).

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Essentials of anatomic pathology
I am a PGY2 resident in pathology, and this book has proven to be an invaluable addition, it is an excellent review and quick reference book.
The only drawback, is that the pictures are black and white and there are some misspellings in the text.
I strongly recommend it.
Rating: - Very comprehensive
The authors of this review book present, for the most part, a masterfully condensed outline of vital concepts in surgical pathology, while providing very useful additional material on molecular pathology, microbiology, hematopathology, and other topics not traditionally considered part of surgical pathology.
I deny this work a fifth star because, despite the generally laudable efforts of the authors, there runs throughout the book an undeniable, if fairly subtle, thread of carelessness. ... Read More
Rating:  - excellent outline book for surg path
I found this book is very useful even on my daily practice of cytopathology. I use this book very often for quick reference. I also recommend to our residents highly. The second addition is certainly more helpful than first edition with inclusion of over 2000 pictures, although the pictures are in b/w.
