Harsh Mohan Textbook of Pathology has been fully revised to provide the most up to date information on the latest developments in the field.
Divided into three sections – General Pathology, Haematology and Lymphoreticular Tissues, and Systemic Pathology – the new edition covers numerous diseases, their causes, mechanisms, pathophysiology, classification, morphology, and clinical aspects.
Each topic concludes with a summary of key points and features illustrative images, diagrams, and tables.
Most chapters include a clinical case related to the topic, presenting its history and findings, finishing with important questions which are answered in the Appendix section.
