 A must have book for any level of training and practice, September 25, 2017
By Ryan

This is the definitive pathology textbook for medical students, but is also an excellent resource for residents and faculty in pathology. It incorporates basic knowledge and patterns of cellular and tissue response to injury, inflammation, the basis of neoplasia, and organ specific pathology. It also incorporates new molecular mechanisms as we continue to learn more about the underlying basis of disease. It is not enough to just learn this book for a career in pathology, but all other pathology texts build off of the foundation of this one. It is also useful for those in the basic sciences who wish to get some clinical insight to whole body or cellular pathophysiology.

 Should have bought this for second year of medical school, September 02, 2017
By frozenfrog

The book arrived in perfect condition. I purchased this book purely for my library after already completing the first two years of medical school. In retrospect, I sincerely wish I would have read this during MS2, as this would have made learning pathophysiology much easier. The book has very nice, straightforward explanations of common disease processes, and appropriate high-quality pictures. However, looking forward to residency and beyond, I can't say this book will be that useful. The explanations are fairly superficial and not deep or current enough to inform my decision making as a clinician.

For all the medical students out there: this is definitely not a first line study tool for your boards but it is a GREAT reference book to have on hand. It is very nice to be able to consult it as needed for more in depth information. I would recommend any aspiring doc have a copy of this book.
