Reviews
This is an excellent resource for medical students throughout both the didactic and clinical portions of their training. The breadth and organization of the material make it a valuable introductory book for learning pathology that can also be used to review a topic later in training. -William R Perry, MD, MPH (University of Michigan Medical School) Doody's Score: 82-4 Stars!
