Customer Reviews

Great for Med Students

This book is a question and answer style book that explains the basic concepts of Path. It is a great way to make sure you understand the general concepts. This book came highly recommended by other medical school students, and I now know why. It's an easy read as well.

An helpful book

Generally speaking the book is useful and it might be an excellent help for teachers. It wood be the best if the book will contain more questions and answers about Clinic Pathology and Laboratory analysis. It wood be evn better if correlated with clinical cases, from the simpler to the more complicated. few questions should be of pure reasoning in Medicine and related subjects. In any case thank to the authors for the excellent effort.

Asking the right questions leads to learning

Finally a book that asks only the questions you need to know. Finally a book that ignores unnecessary details and instead focuses on practical knowledge. This book is for anyone who has ever sifted through a huge pathology textbook wondering what is important. Finally a patholigist and teacher lays out what is important. In addtion to pathology, this book is great for genetics, biochem, endocrinology, and pathophysiology. If you can learn what is in these pages you will have the base you need to answer any USMLE question and you will amaze your residents in year three as you show a broad based knowledge of disease that you can actually use.
