Abstract

Atlas of Mammography is beautifully done. It is complete in its descriptions of the normal breast, benign disease, and malignant disease.

Each of the sections begins with several pages of text followed by photographs, which are accompanied by brief explanatory statements. Two additionally good features are the chapters which summarize the differential diagnosis of benign disease and that on the medicolegal implications of x-ray diagnosis of breast disease.
