Dr. Hayat has published extensively in the fields of microscopy, cytology, immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and antigen retrieval methods. He is Distinguished Professor, Department of Biological Sciences, Kean University, Union, New Jersey, USA.

"The impressive list of contributors, form 15 countries, and the extensive coverage in 492 pages (with many micrographs of excellent quality) maintains the high standard established in Volume 1 of the Handbook series. It represents a valuable addition to the available technical literature on human carcinomas. Professor Hayat is again to be congratulated for producing such a useful book. This book should be considered for purchase by medical school librarians and by hospital Pathology/Oncology departments." --MICRON (2005)
