5.0 out of 5 stars Histology made easy, August 23, 2000

By	"robmohr" (MELBOURNE, VICTORIA Australia) - See all my reviews

Finally a book that encompases the two facets of histology in equal proportions. The Atlas of Functional Histology not only has brilliant visual aspects, but moreover, it also ties in essential written commentary which more than complements. The picture quality is second to none which makes buying this text an easy decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent atlas for histology, August 4, 2003

By A Customer

I found this atlas very helpful for my histology class in med school. The pictures make histology a lot easier to understand. It also gives you an edge in the lab portion of the class. I also highly recommend the following: Histology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers ISBN: 0971999686
The second book helped me to evaluate the type of questions to prepare for in my histology exams. In other words, get both books because they are very helpful for any med student taking histology. I got an A- with the help of these books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learning the easy way and enjoying it..., March 25, 2000

By	robyn vazquez (Portland, Oregon) - See all my reviews

When I first opened this book, I was really overwelmed on how the pictures showed such detail. With such a subject, the author made it simple and precise easy enough to understand. I have learned a great deal from this book and it has helped me recap on some old things that I have forgotten. Even co-workers want a copy of this book.
