Samenvatting
In the late nineteenth century, David Paul von Hansemann coined phrases that have remained the basis of descriptive terms concerning the microscopical appearances of tumors ever since, yet his work is rarely mentioned today. This book presents translations of all the relevant German texts and analyses the background and context of Hansemann's theories. It shows that some of Hansemann’s ideas may still be relevant to cancer research today.
