From the reviews: "The purpose is to fill a void in general pathology books that seem to lack information on frozen section diagnosis and the problems that may be encountered. ... This book does not stray from its goal. Practicing surgical pathologists or pathologists in training are the intended audience. ... This book would be helpful to read in advance of performing frozen section diagnoses." (Jamie L. Porter, Doody's Review Service, December, 2010)
