The book is comprehensive and contains almost all what you want in cytopathology. The pictures are nice. However, I couldn't give the book more than 3 stars because of the text. The text is not easy to read and you feel yourself lost when you go through the text (this is in contrast to Cibas book which I believe that it is the best book in cytopathology I have ever read). If Bibo's book has better editing, it should become one of the best books. I recommend you combine this book with other resources.

I hit most of cytopathology area for about 5 years , but when i read this book i found it invaluable , with informative text and clear images , its suitable in clinics, research reviews & teaching cytopathology and contains the ( bread & butter) of this scieance, I highly recommend this book to any cytopathologist and cytotechnologist looking for a basic reference.

I bought this book from Manhattan Media Mart about $250 and cannot access the online version. Since this book from the Saint Vincent's Hospital Manhattan, which was bankrupcy in 2010. So I only have a book and do not have online access to this book. I was not very happy about this. Next I will buy a new book so that I can access online and it only cause $30 more.

Dr. Bibbo's book provides the most scientific approach to cytopathology that I've encountered as a practicing cytopathologist and during my fellowship years. Chapter six is a well organized comprehensive gathering of the science behind the art of cytopathology. A most read, several times, for anyone seriously considering this career as a life-long adventure.Although the pictures in this book are not of the quality of Dr. DeMay's book, its scientific content is impecable.

I purchased this book and seriously regret it. Compared to Demay's text this book is worthless except for its stats info. All of the people I know who have Bibbo use it either as a microscope stand or book end. Please don't buy this book.
