Clinical Pathology Book

Description

Preface

This first edition of the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Pathology was written with the aim of producing a pocket-sized book which concisely conveys the key pathology relevant to clinical practice. The handbook covers both general and systems-based pathology with each topic occupying either a single- or double-page spread. A uniform sequence of headings is followed for each topic to allow easy access to the facts. Although aimed primarily at medical students, this handbook should also be useful for postgraduate doctors working in specialties with close links to pathology. I hope you find this handbook helpful and easy to learn from. Feedback on errors and omissions would be much appreciated.
