Reviews
...The illustrations [are] chosen to catch students' attention, and to explicate details and intricacies--along the lines of the old adage that one picture is worth a hundred words. As a teacher I would invite my students to describe the color figures and try to see how far they can go. Once they become involved and realize 'how much they can see just by observing', I would ask them to read the text on the opposite side...connecting words with the visual data. The authors deserve congratulations for the well-chosen pictures, some of which cannot be described otherwise than stunning and memorable. ...There are no similar atlases covering the macroscopic, microscopic and ultrastructural aspects of general pathology all in one. ...It could get...on the list of recommended texts in the almighty First Aid for the Boards! ...A quality textbook of this kind deserves wider usage.--Modern Pathology
