Reviews

From the reviews: A very welcome, reasonably priced addition to the shelf of any pathologist who conducts paediatric autopsies... -Bahid ...an asset to any pathologists' assistant's library. - American Academy of Physician Assistants This book fills a much needed gap for the pediatric pathologist and for the general anatomical pathologist faced with a fetal or infant autopsy. ! These descriptions are accompanied by numerous photographs and diagrams. The extensive set of proformas, lists, and tables are of very real use to even the most experienced of pediatric pathologists. ! this is a very good book and an essential addition to the pathology library. (Lynette Moore, Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology, Vol. 2 (1), 2006) It was a great pleasure to review this book written by Dr Gilbert-Barness, well known as a distinguished paediatric pathologist, ably assisted by her co-worker Debich Spicer. ! There are five parts to the book ! . Techniques are well illustrated with black and white, easy to follow photographs. ! Overall this was well written and well illustrated. ! It is a book which I will be pleased to have on my shelf and I would recommend it as a useful aid to teaching. (Dr M-J Evans, American College of Physicians News, Autumn, 2005)
