Rezensionen

"The purpose is to provide a systematic overview of head and neck pathology in an encyclopedic fashion and to supplement the medical literature with a reference work. ... Although written primarily for general pathologists, this will also be useful for pathology residents and fellows in head and neck pathology. ... this volume will find its place in the expanding arena of pathology books, as it is a valuable contribution to the field." (Anamarija M. Perry, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2016)
