Reviews
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 07-NOV-07, Volume 298, Issue 17, Syed A. Hoda, MD and Rana S. Hoda, MD -- ...Rubin's Pathology: Clinicopathologic Foundations of Medicine, 5th edition aims to present information that is 'worth knowing' in applied pathology to its intended audience: medical students, pathology trainees, and others who have an interest in this nexus of basic science and clinical medicine. In this regard, the book seems to be on target. ...There are 9 chapters devoted to basic general pathology and 21 to 'systemic' considerations. Each section offers a sip or two from the torrent of recent developments that now aid in our understanding of the pathogenesis of disparate...diseases. Moving beyond mere clinical and morphological expression of diseases, the reasonably refined text delves into molecular aspects, discusses genetic issues, and describes immunologic aspects. This reference text maintains a reasonable balance between bedside perceptions and benchtop perspectives and in doing so represents an extraordinarily integrated effort in a single, still-portable volume. ...The book is no more specialized than necessary for its intended audience...The book has enhanced its erstwhile reputation for informative images (more than 200 have been added). In keeping with the times, a dedicated Web site serves as an online supplement to the text, providing case studies, images, and a variety of other teaching tools-all accessible via a unique code encrypted in each volume. ...With apologies to Oscar Wilde, some things that are worth knowing can indeed be taught! -Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA)
