Reviews

This book describes the clinical, epidemiological, and histological features of tumors arising in the testis and penis. ... The intended audience is surgical pathologists, residents, and fellows. Practicing or training urologists or subspecialty oncologists also could find this book of use. ... this is a valuable contribution to the field of urological pathology and will be of value in the library of surgical pathologists or pathology departments. (Kyle D. Perry, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2016)
