5 out of 5 stars Great!   April 11, 2010

This book has everything it takes to be considered a really good book. Though the text is quite dense, you can easily understand it. The topics are thoroughly explained, and there is always a good scheme to help understand them. Overall a very good pathology book, which I'm happy to have.


5 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE!   May 17, 2010

If you don't have this, there is no way you can pass the boards and you will definitely not know much about pathology. All Med students must have a copy for reference. I would recommend the Pocket version, The review book and Atlas for more efficiency in understanding concepts.


5 out of 5 stars Pretty good reading for a Path book   July 3, 2009

Pretty good book, especially for the price. The information is interesting enough to sit down and read a section when interested in a disease, but the book doesn't provide too much information to be overwhelming to a student. I am very glad that I purchased this book as it has been very helpful in my pathology courses.

This is just an updated version of the good old Robbins I have been using for years and trust. I haven't used another path book but I have no desire to try anything else as it's the only book that has proven itself.

This is the most important book about pathology ever released. And this new version is full of news. The most recent research fields about all the systems are now updated, and with new chapters, and photographs. Is worthfull for every student of health sciences.
Awesome!
