Rating:  - Useful and worth buying, but with one major drawback
The content of this book is adequate and it is written in an easy-to-read, flowing style. It could use some more tables for comparison of immuno. panels to help in differential diagnoses, but over-all it is a decent and very helpful everyday reference. The index, however, has much to be desired. Many immunoperoxidase stains are not listed individually in a catalog style, nor are the specific cells/organs/organ structures that they stain, so unless you already know what entity a specific stain is used for or know alternate diagnoses or names, you may not be able to find it. You can't just look up a specific stain you may have heard about and want to research further. The index is a critical component of a well-written book and is just as important as text it represents--it's no use having a book full of information if you can't find what you need. I hope this issue is addressed in the next edition, in which case then, this book may reach the status of excellent.
Rating:  - Must Have Textbook
This reference is a must have! If you are a surgical pathologist and do not have this textbook you are setting yourself up to fail. It is extremely well written and with all the color photos it is a great value for the money. I probably use this text more than any other reference textbook. The insight gleened from reading this text has saved me on a number of challenging cases. The tables are excellent and easy to read. I can't wait for the next edition.
