Customer Reviews

Concise pathophysiology review

A good book for brief intro into pathophysiology, or as a review for those needing a quick review. Not too in depth, nor currently (2006) up to date, but gives a taste of what pathophysiologis about. Also ties in some of the molecular markers into the text. The best part however are the pictures ... a synopsis at a glimps.

Medical Student

Great book to accompany study of pathophys. Although not complete, its atlas format with charts, pictures and diagrams is great for recall of pathophys of disease and clinical manifestations. Taking notes on it while studying completes most of what you need. Great for the wards.
