Recenzje

From the reviews:

"This book focuses on the newest molecular discoveries and their role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of various endocrine disorders, incorporating a generous number of images and tables. ... useful to medical students, pathology assistant students, and residents, as well as other healthcare professionals who wish to broaden their knowledge of molecular pathology. ... it correlates the histologic, clinical, and molecular features of endocrine diseases, giving a more complete picture of the problem. ... a useful complement to everyday practice and study." (Luka Ozretic, Doody's Review Service, July, 2010)
