Rezensionen
From the reviews of the second edition:

"This second edition remains true to the goal of the first edition - to be a concise, practical manual of placental pathology. ... Written by an expert in placental pathology, this book is diagnostically useful for all practicing pathologists and pathologists in training. ... This concise, practical manual of placental pathology is a reasonably priced, beautifully illustrated book which is easy to read and is a relevant placenta reference for all practicing surgical pathologists." (Maura F. O'Neil, Doody's Review Service, April, 2011)

"The book is aimed at general pathologists, but there is sufficient information and detail to keep the specialist pathologist happy as well. ... The book is well illustrated, with a mix of gross photographs and micrographs, and useful line diagrams demonstrating early placental development, as well as photographic demonstrations of various techniques for examination. ... Overall, this is a succinct and practical bench manual, which I would commend to anyone involved in the examination of placentas." (Caroline Gannon, Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists, October, 2011)
