 Rating:  - Speedy and straight to the pointJust excellent!!! At med school you have very little time to assimilate your readings...This book helps a lot in summarizing lectures and Histology textbooks!!!! Rating: - All You'll Need for MicroanatomyI admit, I'm a bit biased here because for my Microanatomy class we were assigned Gartner & Hiatt's Color Textbook of Histology.

Really important and understandable facts in the light of USMLE. I'm reading some other books on this subject too, and I have inferred that this one is very good. Rating: - Very good for HistologyThis book is broken into systems and has nice board related pathology info at the end of each chapter. Exp: The Chapter on Neuro Histology will give you a clear understanding of the histo, physio, and then give pathology examples such as what happens when there is demyelination->MS. I was never taught histology, but this book is so well laid out, I could make the correlation between histo, phys, and path. Excellent resource if you want to understand histo in a short period of time. I see where ... Read More
