Handbook of Autopsy Practice

Rezensionen / Stimmen

This is a meticulous update of the classic textbook of autopsy practice. Dr. Ludwig's book has taught many generations of pathologists in training to perform autopsies and has served many practicing pathologists as a reference in the autopsy room. Thus it was a pity that it went out of print for the last 10 years or so. The entire pathology community owes Dr. Ludwig a note of gratitude for updating his classic book for the future generations. This is an essential book for all practicing hospital-based pathologists and is absolutely indispensable for residents learning to perform and interpret autopsies. In my opinion this is the best autopsy handbook in the English language and it deserves to be widely read, cherished and used. - Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal ...highly commendable volume...I recommend this book for hospital histopathology departments, where it will be a valuable reference source, and also for forensic departments, where part two is a valuable check list of specimens to take for investigating specific diseases. - Science & Justice From reviews of the earlier editions... comprehensive, informative, and well illustrated.
