      This is a great book, kind of a gold standard for pathology exams. Be aware that it has a steep learning curve especially if you are going through it for the first time. This is to be expected though since it is technically a review book. Definitely worth the time of going though it multiple times.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Comparison between 3rd revised and this
      Reviewed in the United States on 3 July 2013

      I have both the 3rd edition revised reprint and the 4th edition so this review it's mainly intended to highlight the differences between the two.

      They're both excellent books and if you've ever read Goljan, you know what to expect. As for the differences:
      1. The book is longer. By about ~150-200 pages. That may not be a good thing depending on the type of person you are and the review of pathology you want. But I find it a bit more comprehensive in explaining concepts.

      What is in the additional pages? Most of the addition from what I can tell and according to Goljan's acknowledgments in the cover is "more high-yeild information and photographs than in previous editions." The pictures you'll notice right off the bat. There are several pictures in all corners better displaying things I had to google or reference in the past. Not really a game changer, but it makes the book feel more complete.

      2. Most notable, the little blurbs he has an the sides that summarize high-yeild concepts have been increased by 1.5-2x fold. It's really good if you're like myself and go back to review those concepts to make sure you got what you wanted from chapter (and your professors in year 1 tested from those blurbs). But at the same time, they become too cluttered and in a way, they subtract rather than add.

      Would I recommend an upgrade? Up to your style really. I own Harrison's and read that to reference things. I prefer a more dense and complete book so I really like the changes in 4th edition of this book. If you prefer shorter reviews and limited in time, maybe the 3rd is better for you? But then again, you'd be missing out on the pictures that highlight some of the pathology.

      The only thing I'm sad about was that I had taken notes from watching relevant Pathoma videos during first year into Goljan's 3rd edition. But I was planning to rewatch the videos anyhow, so it's another way to review the material.
