A visual survey of pulmonary cytopathology is provided by this atlas. It contains over 300 colour illustrations, including diagnostic specimens of common and uncommon conditions, and examples of cytological problems. The majority of the illustrations are of Panpanicolaou-stained material, although other special stains are demonstrated. Each chapter starts with a general introduction citing the principal and most recent literature, and each illustration has a detailed caption.
