The Essentials of Histology: Descriptive and Practical for the Use of Students (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
The Essentials of Histology offers clear guidance for students who want to understand the microscopic structure of the body’s tissues.
This edition covers the major tissue groups, how cells are built, and how tissues develop and differ from one another, with emphasis on practical study for day‑to‑day labs and exams.
From the basic makeup of cells to the way tissues are organized in organs, you’ll see how epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissues form the fabric of the body. The book explains concepts like ground substance, intercellular substance, and cell connections, and it introduces the idea of amoeboid movement and other cellular features with accessible descriptions and diagrams. It also guides you through common staining and microscopic observation techniques used to reveal tissue structure.
- Foundations: the four main tissue types and their distinctive features.
- Cell structure: cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, granules, and how these parts contribute to cell function.
- Intercellular substance and tissue organization, including how tissues connect and communicate.
- Practical study: how to observe tissues under the microscope, interpret slides, and understand common staining results.
Ideal for readers beginning histology or pursuing related health sciences, nursing, or biological studies.
