Egbert, MD, VA Palo Alto Health Care System </p> <b>5 Star - Doody Rating, March 2013</b></p>

<p>It is difficult to review such a book without seeming overly enthusiastic. The book will be equally useful to dermatopathologists and dermatologists and is a worthy addition to any pathology library. This is a masterfully written and beautifully illustrated text that will undoubtedly be kept close to the microscope. <p>-Daniel Toweill, MD, American Journal of Clinical Pathology, review of the previous edition
