The first text to integrate microscopic anatomy with cell biology, general pathology, and physiology, Histology and Cell Biology: An Introduction to Pathology, 6th Edition, continues to set the standard for studying today’s rapidly evolving, molecular-oriented medicine. Drs. Abraham L. Kierszenbaum and Laura L. Tres present essential concepts in an accessible, easy-to-understand manner, with full-color illustrations, diagrams, photomicrographs, and pathology photos fully integrated on every page. Linking pathological conditions to basic sciences throughout, this award-winning text helps you build a substantial clinical knowledge base while learning the structure and function of normal organs.
