The updated Third Edition of Rubin and Farber's Pathology retains the features that make this text a favorite in medical schools--contemporary coverage, distinguished contributing authors, student-friendly format, and hundreds of full-color photomicrographs, color drawings, and colorful charts and other graphics throughout. The Third Edition's highlights include 300 new full-color photomicrographs, completely updated graphics throughout, and major revisions to chapters on developmental and genetic diseases, immunopathology, neoplasia, blood vessels, and infectious and parasitic diseases.The text provides students with the foundations of general and systemic pathology for a solid understanding of pathogenesis and how it relates to clinical medicine. A consistent, orderly presentation of each disease--definition, epidemiology, pathogenesis, pathology, clinical features--helps focus the student's attention and makes key facts easier to remember. Bullets and boldface type are strategically used to highlight important points.
