Basic Pathology 3rd Edition: An Introduction to the Mechanisms of Disease

by Caroline Finlayson (Author), Ahmet Dogan (Author), SusanDilly (Author), SunilLakhani (Author)

Synopsis

This best-selling textbook provides a lively introduction to pathology for students of medicine, dentistry, nursing, and other health professions.



The book explores the basic mechanisms that a student must understand in order to make sense of clinical medicine, and in addition, covers all aspects of the science underlying disease processes, integrating the topics covered within a clinical setting.



Entirely updated in line with recent changes in the curriculum, the third edition retains the much-praised clinical scenarios, historical anecdotes, key points boxes and revision notes from the previous edition. Restructured into four major sections, the text highlights the key mechanisms and their interplay in producing symptoms, signs and disease

Media Reviews
Lakhani and his colleagues have made general pathology interesting by using historical vignettes, line diagrams, key-points and revision tips. The book is a good way of introducing concepts of disease for those whose first language is not English and for a wider spectrum of students.
