Description

Professor Corrin presents the 5th Volume of the 3rd edition of the world famous and highly praised 'Systemic Pathology' series. His volume covers the pathology of the lungs, emphasising diagnositc pathological features, and trainee pathologists will find it essential reading. Following the successful style and tone of previous volumes, the book is highly illustrated and discursive, making it a valuable and readable source of meticulously researched knowledge. Also like other volumes, it is extensively referenced for further reading. Professor Corrin has completely rewritten this volume for the 3rd edition, thus making it all the more appropriate for students for the MRCPath. This volume is very reasonably priced given its extent and the profusion of illustrations.
