"Critical knowledge of pulmonary pathology and adjacent tissues ... shapes the teaching programs of residents and pathologists with the aim of distinguishing the different conditions encountered in clinical practice. The 2nd edition of Pulmonary Pathology with its 24 chapters accomplishes this task"

"This update is a well-organized, easy-to-read, visually appealing book meant to help students and practicing pathologists with the diagnosis of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic pulmonary pathology. The generously sized, annotated, focused, and richly-colored images of the gross and microscopic findings are a major highlight, and even higher resolution images are available online. Likewise, the summary tables for each disease phenomena are exceptionally high yield. I highly recommend this book for any pathology department library." Reviewed by Anna B. Owczarczyk, MD, PhD (University of Michigan Medical Center) for Doody's Review Service
