From the reviews of the fourth edition: "This is a comprehensive look at all aspects of autopsy practice, from gross examination to the reporting of findings. Six new chapters have been added to this edition, and updates are included on molecular testing and new disease entries with current references. … This book is aimed at autopsy pathologists, including forensic pathologists and pathologists in training. … The section on disease findings is a valuable resource for in-training or practicing pathologists. This is a good reference for any autopsy service." (Katie L. Dennis, Doody’s Review Service, August, 2009) "The book … dedicated to autopsy practice that can serve as a quick and ready reference. … Pathology trainees and pathology assistants will benefit from the perusal of this book. … those new to autopsy practice will, after perusing this work, develop desirable practices that enhance patient care." (Syed A. Hoda and Carrie Basenceney, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 302 (20), November, 2009) “‘Handbook of Autopsy Practice’ by Brenda Waters is a most important contribution to clinical as well as to forensic pathology. … a useful reference and might serve even the experienced prosector in discovering new ways of dissection. … Overall, the fourth edition of the handbook is superb. It should be an essential part of the standard equipment of each autopsy room. … forensic pathologists should not miss reading the book in order to gain more confidence in the overlapping aspects of clinical and forensic pathology.” (Jan P. Sperhake, Forensic Science, Medicine and Pathology, Vol. 6, 2010)
