Review:

American Journal of Surgical Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 7 -- "A comprehensive but concise review of breast pathology. Morphologic emphasis is provided by the inclusion of a CD-ROM, which contains more than 600 color images, many of which are annotated within the text. Readers unaccustomed to viewing "e-figures" will no doubt appreciate its user-friendly format. This edition contains updated information and references on a broad spectrum of recent developments, including sentinel lymph node biopsy, biomarkers, and a number of newly described lesions. The tone of the chapters reflect the author's considerable experience with the evolution of advancements in breast pathology."-American Journal of Surgical Pathology
