Fundamentals of pathology are covered here with a strong
clinicopathologic orientation and integrated coverage of the impact of
molecular pathology on the practice of medicine. Clinical and anatomic
pathology are discussed throughout, in addition to laboratory diagnosis of

This edition of Basic Pathology is a very good book for Medicine
students, because it is as complete as necessary for a graduation course,
and this book's easy language and beautiful diagrams, pictures and tables
makes Pathology easier to understand.

Baby Robbins is the final authority in second-year pathology. Clinical
features are highlighted, and organization is straight forward. I skip class
and depend solely on this text sometimes.

Reviewer: A reader
from Scunthorpe,England |
the new 6th edition of Kumar`s(et al)Pathology text book is much
improved. It is more concise, easy to understand, and the excellent diagrams
make life, for the beleaguered medical student,a lot easier. Having read
Underwood as well, I would much rather recommend this book as an indepth yet
more approachable option.
