Author Description

Diagnosis of tumors is among the most commonly performed tasks in pulmonary pathology, and the chapters on tumors in Dail and Hammar: <b>Pulmonary Pathology</b> have been singled out for special praise for their authoritative discussions and comprehensive lists of references. In reviewing the first edition, <i>Diagnostic Cytopathology</i> said: "the chapter on common lung neoplasms is like a book within a book." In revising the chapter on uncommon lung tumors, Dr. Dail <i>added</i> nearly 500 new references and 100 new illustrations.<br>The present proposal is to make the chapters on tumors from the second edition of <b>Pulmonary Pathology</b> available to the broad range of pathology residents and clinicians who will not buy <b>Pulmonary Pathology</b>, 2nd ed. for their personal libraries because of its size and cost.
