Book Description
General and Systematic Pathology is a highly acclaimed textbook, written and designed for students of medicine and related health science subjects. It presents pathology in the context of modern cellular biology and clinical practice. This comprehensive text begins with the principles of pathology and the mechanisms of disease before covering systematic pathology.

For this edition considerable care has been taken to further refine and improve the contents. The editors have responded to detailed feedback provided by an International Advisory Board. Further Reading sections have been extended and annotated and key web sites have been included. In response to the integration between the scientific and clinical parts of the courses, is a new feature `Mechanism of treatment' boxes. These identify which part of the pathological process is influenced by various treatments and how.

The pathology of diseases and disease processes is presented in the context of modern medical practice and relevant advances in cellular and molecular biology. Part 1 (Basic Pathology) deals with the classification and causation of disease and the role of diagnostic pathology in clinical practice. Part 2 (Disease Mechanisms) details the pathological processes involved in the main categories of disease. Part 3 (Systematic Pathology) gives comprehensive accounts of specific diseases.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   8 of 8 people found the following review helpful: An essential Pathology book, 28 Mar 2003 By A Customer I was amazed by this book. It enables a detailed, and often monotonous, subject to come alive and become interesting. With full colour pictures, this book brings pathology to life and is essential to all medical students who really want to know pathology. It manages to strike the balance between detailed knowledge and overload, and doesn't manage to bore the reader. I strongly recommend this book as an adjunct to your lecture notes.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

There are loads of good quality colour photos, with the compulsory gory allocation a pathology book has to have! The text not only covers pathological details but relevant physiology, aetiology and clinical features. It's useful throughout medical school life and is definitely one to recommend. Overall, a worthwhile investment!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

Helyer - See all my reviews    A very detailed and well structured text on pathology. Written by the professor of pathology at Sheffield - it pretty much covers everything on the pathology curriculum here. The introductory chapters are also very useful and include such topics as the causation of disease etc. Very descriptive and very well written. You will need to supplement this with a good clinical medicine book (such as kumar and clark) to simplify things a little!!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
