| Summary |
"Human Histology is a well-established textbook, that combines conceptual drawings and color electronmicrographs with user-friendly text, helping to make histology both accessible and interesting. This third edition has been thoroughly updated to include the latest advances in molecular biology, extra clinically-oriented text and even better images. Clinical scenarios and case-based questions link the basic science to clinical practice highlighting the relevance of histology to current medical students. Other features include 'advanced concept boxes' and a 'practical histology' feature, making it easy to dip into these subjects without being overwhelmed with material."--BOOK JACKET |
