Re: Immunohistochemistry texts revisited

From:Vinnie Della Speranza <dellav@musc.edu>

Hi Victor,
I had the privilege of meeting Dr. True years ago when interviewing for a position at Yale.
Don't know if you have had a chance to view a copy of his atlas ( is there one on his shelf perhaps?). The term "atlas" almost does not do it justice. In addition to many very high quality photomicrographs of various immuno-stained markers, there is a wealth of technical and interpretive information. If it is out of print I suspect it will be difficult to find a used copy. Doubtful anyone would be willing to part with it. As I said earlier, I keep my copy in a very safe place. Condolences to those of you who are unable to get your hands on one.
Victor, any chance he's considering updating this valuable resource ? It belongs in everyone's collection of great references.
Vinnie

Vinnie,

Dr. Larry True is on staff here. Larry said that the book is available thru Amazon.com. He thanks you for the kind words.
