Synopsis:

One of the best-selling medical textbooks of all time, "Robbins and Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease" is the one book you probably purchased as a medical student that still provides answers now that you're in practice. The new professional edition is the same 'who's who' of pathology experts that delivers the most dependable, current, and complete coverage of today's essential pathology knowledge, now with benefits designed specifically for you as a practitioner. Masterful editing and a practical organisation make learning or reinforcing every concept remarkably easy. Online access via Expert Consult gives downloadable images, search functionality, and free access to a differential diagnosis tool.

Review:

"This book is even shorter than before. That is really impressive. I cannot but admire this book, which I keep re-reading since I entered Pathology in 1966. Wow, it shows that even a first class book can be improved - hard to believe but true. It is very readable and even funny in some places. The text is nicely laid out and the book looks less bulky than the previous edition. The illustrations are excellent. Even though the book is definitely for the new generations, I am sure that it will be welcomed by senior pathologists trying to keep up with the times - I doubt that I am the only old timer eager to re-read it." - Ivan Damjanov, MD, PhD, author of Pathology Secrets and Pathophysiology

"Pathologic Basis of Disease continues to be the most appropriate text for all students of pathology, be they in medical or health curricula, studying medical sciences in the context of another field such as engineering or business, and for professionals requiring a rapid reference to common pathologic conditions and pathways. Anyone who interfaces with human illness should have a copy of this book." - Michael A. Seidman, MD, PhD, Department of Pathology, Brigham & Women's Hospital, Boston, MA
