Description

This concise highly illustrated textbook of histology and cell biology, that can also serve as an introduction to the study of pathology, is perfectly suited to the 'new' medical curriculum. The unique, full colour illustrations are fully integrated into the text - each is designed not just to illustrate the text, but also to provide a complete review of a particular concept or topic. In line with current teaching trends, normal histology is correlated with cell and molecular biology, pathology and clinical medicine throughout, with numerous clinical examples used. The book can stand on its own and replace the need to purchase a separate text and atlas.
