ReviewsREVIEW OF THE LAST EDITION "Virtually every key concept in the field of histology has been thoughtfully illustrated with a staggering level of detailThe visual presentation is simply outstandingDr. Kierszenbaum has not only succeeded in providing a valuable educational resource but has also raised the standard with regard to the use of graphics and photomicrographs within medical texts." "Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine", "Dr Kierszenbaum and the publishers must be heartily congratulated as this is indeed a wonderful and really a quite beautiful book. It brings together cell biology, histology and pathophysiology with some clinical correlations. The diagrams are vivid, colourful and complement the informative and comprehensive text. All clinicians need to have a basic understanding of cell biology as this is where the future of medicine lies. This is a wonderful book for students of medicine at any level." "Declan O'Kane MD FRCP(UK), www.medexam.net" "The book is good all round. It seems very comprehensive in its coverage of normal histology, but it certainly goes much further: it has some simple explanations of physiology and some pathology...For the student interested in histology and in reading a little bit extra physiology, this is a useful textbook."
