5.0 out of 5 stars Goljan + this book = Golden
Reviewed in the United States on 3 April 2012
Verified Purchase
This book is really amazing. Whenever Goljan's falters, this book shines. While I would pick Goljan over this book if I had a choice between the two, let me say that the use of these two books in combination really is amazing because there really are some areas that Goljan are not as organized in, while this book is consistently amazingly organized (for example, goljan's repspiratory section did not break down the restrictive lung diseases into clear parts, while clearly done in this book), and not to mention the explanations are often clearer in these areas (and overall, imo) since they are not as bullet-point like.

Get goljans, sure, but i really recommend also picking up a copy of this book if you had trouble stomaching goljan's bullet point stlyle, and like your longer descriptions, with just the right amount of detail. This book also has great images alongside the text (also something i liked over goljan) and is great for the visual learner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome quick path review
Reviewed in the United States on 7 April 2011
Verified Purchase
This is a great to-the-point review book. It was written from powerpoints used for USMLE review by the author at Texas. The students at his school score very high on USMLE, so take that for what it's worth. This book excels at pointing out visual features of diseases. Other review books often just state "asteroid bodies" (for example). But unless you have an awesome memory, you need to see the picture. This is a great review book that is often overlooked.

I thought it was the most helpful path book for medical school. It brakes pathology into manageable chunks and focuses on the most important/distinguishing features of pathology. Wish I had this book on day 1.
