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 the third edition retains the much-praised clinical scenarios, historical anecdotes, key points boxes and revision notes from the previous edition . Restructured into five major sections, the text highlights the key mechanisms and their interplay in producing symptoms, signs and disease.
