3.0 out of 5 stars It's OK but not excellent, October 8, 2010

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 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.
