Review Answers
"This is the sixth updated edition of a comprehensive overview of histology with accompanying key and advanced concepts and clinical examples.... address[es] core concepts in human histology, as well as provide[s] clinical context in which knowledge of histology helps readers understand various conditions and diseases.... useful to anyone looking to enhance their histology knowledge including medical students, students of other health-related professions, pathology residents and fellows, residents and fellow in various clinical specialties, and practicing pathologists.... Whether readers are complete beginners or are experts looking to refresh histology knowledge, this book is an excellent resource. Although there are a number of good histology books and atlases on the market, this textbook goes a step further in demonstrating that a core competence in histology is essential to understanding normal function of tissues and organs, as well as pathologic processes. [it] should be widely distributed to health sciences libraries and should be in the personal library of every pathologist."
