Book Description

ISBN-10: 0387949542 | ISBN-13: 978-0387949543 | Publication Date: June 15, 1999 | Edition: 1

Bridging the gap between textbook diagrams and the complex reality of histological preparations, this magnificent atlas of human microanatomy is designed to help students understand the complex structures encountered when viewing microscopic sections of tissues. Instead of simply depicting an individual section, each drawing is a compilation of the key structures and features seen in many preparations from similar tissues or organs. Invaluable to students in a range of life science and medical disciplines including human and veterinary medicine, dentistry, mammalian biology, pharmacy, and nursing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Histology Atlas for Medical Students, January 31, 2001

Marvin Sodicoff (King of Prussia, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: An Atlas of Histology (Paperback)

I was one of the people asked to review this book by the publisher prior to its acceptance for publication. I found it to be an excellent atlas of histology based on detailed drawings rather than on photomicrographs. Drawings provide an idealized view of histologic materials that actual micrographs cannot usually display. While some instructors prefer actual photographic micrographs I find that drawings often offer the student a better understanding and help in identifying anatomic detail.
