Product Description

Review

It is hard to imagine a pathologist, whether a trainee or consultant, who would not benefit from reading or at least referring to this book. Most older pathologists will possess earlier editions as "Robbins" has been a standard text for many years. This seventh edition represents the evolution of the best single volume textbook on general pathology and the editors are to be congratulated in having resisted the temptation to overturn the book's familiar order in the name of innovation. Instead, they have sympathetically expanded the text, which now includes a phenomenal amount of information. A particularly welcome development is the chapter on ocular pathology for the generalist and the reorganisation of the chapter on infectious diseases taxonomically. The book has a very broard appeal: it could be read with profit by consultant pathologists, but is still suitable as an undergraduate text for medical students, as it starts from first principles and extends to the limits of knowledge. "Robbins" will remain the book of choice for diligent students, who will be inspired by the thorough scientific grounding in pathology that it provides. UK universities that believe this factual knowledge to be redundant should consider the popularity of "Robbins" in the US, and with practicing diagnostic pathologists in the UK, and think again.
"BMA Awards 2005"
A well laid out book covering the entire spectrum of disease in clear, concise detail. The sections are clearly headed and a separate index at the start of each chapter means finding them becomes a doddle. The book makes a point of making it easy to tackle such a large amount of text - from basics, slowly working up to the more complex. Thebook has an excellent additional feature in the form of a MCQ CD. The book is just about worth buying for the CD alone. It really helps your revision of pathology and challenges you to think more deeply about the topic.
It may seem too much for students, but this book will last for your whole medical education and no doubt beyond.
"Edinburgh Medics, a Res Medica supplement courtesy of the Royal Medical Society, July 2005"
This new edition is praiseworthy for the breadth and depth of its content and its ability to remain up to date. It serves the needs not only of the beginning student, the pathologist in training, but all practitioners of medicine with intellectual curiosity.
"Modern Pathology, 2005"

Review of Previous Edition:

"...A welcome and much needed reassertion of the central importance of pathology in all of medical education." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best, 15 Oct 2004
By Gluey (London, UK) - See all my reviews
A very simple review for simply the best pathology book. I find this has the right amount of content, the best approach and also the most accessible format/layout. I am writing this from the point of view of a medical student. It is more than an introduction to pathology, and can actually be read chapter by chapter, if u have wrists strong enough to carry its weight! Forget Underwood and all the others, this is the best, it really is, and worth the money, which as students, is definitely steep.

5.0 out of 5 stars the most beautiful book of medical science, 13 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I study medicine, and I read several books of phisiology, anatomy and biochemistry. Many of them are so boring and uninteresting. With this book you feel real desire for reading and learning. The the ilustrations, the diagrams and graphics are wonderful. The text is easy to understand and is very actuallized. It's fascinating to read texts from different and so recognized authors. I'm glad I've done this purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars The model textbook!, 1 Jun 2006
With clear, helpful colour diagrams and photos, Robbins gives a fairly deep level of information. If this is too deep for you - never fear - the summary-introductions and morphology boxes give a good general outline. This book really helped me to understand a lot, and filled in the gap between my theory-based lectures and clinical implications.
