Reviews

This is a slim but meaty monograph on ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and microinvasive breast cancer. ... The book is appropriately illustrated with mammograms and pathology examples and is heavily referenced. ... This is really most appropriate for specialists (medical and surgical oncologists) and specialty trainees. ... Trainees in these specialties will find it an excellent, balanced review of particularly thorny issues. (Carol Scott-Conner, Doody's Book Reviews, September, 2016)
