Reviews / Votes
"It is just right for a busy pathologist swamped in his or her daily practice with tons of surgical material." - Modern Pathology, review of the first edition"With its striking use of color and its readability, Pathology of the Female Reproductive Tract has created a new niche. It represents a pleasing and relatively detailed exploration of gynecologic pathology with a wealth of information and illustrations for the resident in gynecology or pathology or for the practicing pathologist who would like diagnostic assistance when next confronted with a problematic gynecologic biopsy or resection specimen." - NEJM, review of the first edition
