"This is an excellent learning resource for students in any medical field who want to get their feet wet with histology. It is concise and easy to read and, more importantly, presents each topic in just two pages, so as not to overwhelm beginning histology students." (Doody's, 16 December 2011) "This reference text for students, residents, and junior doctors in medicine, biomedicine, and dentistry covers the science, structure, and function of cells and their related pathology and helps readers master the basic principles of recognizing features in histological sections". (Booknews, 1 June 2011)"There are self-assessment questions and answers at the end, and an accompanying website. The book and its website provide an excellent resource for revision." (Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, 1 April 2011)
