Customer Reviews

A great book!!!

I read through some of the reviews and felt compelled to write one. The reviews do not give this book credit. It is truly a great book. For someone who wants to know more information than is required this is the book for you (and this should be any medical student). That is why this book is recommened by more pathologists than the Robbins text, which does not go into much detail. If you ask around, this is the book that pathologists recommend because it is so integrative; explaining many more topics in detail than any other textbook. And just so the readers know, there are no required books in medical school, only recommended books. No matter where you go, you have the right to choose whatever book you feel will help you the most. So from someone who did use the book, and did extremely well in pathology (member of the pathology national honor society), this book provides a great way to learn pathology for a highly motivated student who truly wants to learn pathology.

Great Pictures, Good Explanations, Often Wordy

I thought that this book was pretty good, although it may not be written for a medical student as much as a path resident. Excellent pictures, and good descriptions. I felt that the skin, kidney, and bone section were weak and wordy, but the blood, GI, cardiac, and neuro sections were well put together. I have not read robbins, although I think the general consensus is that is the book to use. The bottom line is I liked this book, and felt that I got a good pathology education from it.

the authentic ,systemic,and the best book I have read

1.Including traditional knowledges and the latest advancement keep pace with advancing of basic and clinic improvement,closly associated with clinical application; 2.Systemic written made easily learning and reviewing rapidly,more fansinating is it's made-of-art photograghs and illusions ,tables and so on. 3.Regular revisement making it a state-of-date new book. As a postgraduate student major in oncopathology of China,it is not easy to touch such a excellent book for inland area as in Henan due to its poor economic and information ultility conditions.As a young student eager to absorb new learnings,entangled by so many difficulties can not keep me from improving myself.Now through World Wide Web,I CAN acquire many useful knowledges and informations. Have a nice day! Sincerely yours Gangliu
