"The Pattern-Based Approach series is dedicated to providing pathology textbooks that more closely reflect the challenges of daily sign-out than conventional texts do. In other words, the focus is on practical clinical and histological findings that you actually need to know. This stands in contrast to books dedicated to comprehensive coverage, for which the goal is to provide all information about an entity, much of which is interesting, much of which is not, and most of which is not that important in getting your case signed out properly. That is not to mean that this book covers only common entities because it does not neglect the rare entities either. Instead, the focus is always on practical findings that are good to know, including clinical, histological, and molecular findings, but with an emphasis on histology. For this reason, there are lots of images (790), succinct text, and organizational tools as outlined below that make the book even easier to navigate. Liver pathology can be very challenging and a pattern-based approach is the perfect starting point for providing excellent patient care. This book is not perfect, as few books are, but I hope you like it and find it useful, especially when you are working on actual clinical material. In the end, I believe that there is no greater calling for a textbook than to be considered practical and useful by those who have it in their offices. "--Provided by publisher
