Elsevier's Integrated Histology: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access
Designed as an initial text or for supplemental study, this aims to help medical students understand how histology related to other medical and biological sciences, an approach that helps them make clinical decisions based on basic science and therefore more accurate diagnoses. Punctuated with many full-color and monochrome illustrations, diagrams and clinical images, this includes boxed information linking text to other disciplines, including biochemistry, physiology, pathology, and genetics. The authors begin with cell structure and types and classifications of tissues and organs, then move to epithelial tissues and exocrine glands, connective and muscle tissues, cartilage and bone, nervous system and special senses, cardiovascular system, blood, blood cell formation, lymphoid system, integumentary system, endocrine organs, digestive system, urinary system, and reproductive system. The authors also provide practice case studies and answers. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
