I found a lot to like about this book. Thirst of all it’s very easy to find what you’re looking for and when you find it it’s thoroughly explained. The authors have also succeeded to combine this vast amount of information with an “easy to overview” layout so that you won’t go lost wondering what you’re actually reading about (as I’ve experienced is often the case with very extensive literature). Both the section of general pathology and the section of systemic pathology (with a chapter for each organ/organ system) have a lot of useful pictures and tables. I think these features makes this book perfect not only for thoroughly understanding the basis of pathology, but also for looking up specific conditions. For me this book will come to good use for many years to come!
