Rating: - Excellent for cytopathology practice and exams
This book is concise enough to read through. In the meantime, it covers all the importent facts!
The highlighted diagnostic criteria are helpful for you to memorize.
If you want to buy only one cytopathology book during your pathology residency, this book is the one to choose.

Rating: - great review book!
I got this in lieu of the baby deMay for study for path boards. I think it's pretty good as a solid review for cytology as it covers pertinent general features of major organ systems. Pictures are super clean and very clear (some with even arrows!!)
CONS: ok, here we go. Not every entity described has a coresponding picture. I hate that. If you go to the trouble writing about a certain tumor for half a page...put in a photo or something of it. This happens about 5% of the time in this book. The text ... Read More
Rating: - Big book in a small package

Rating: - Readable guide to cytopathology
As a first-year pathology resident, I just started learning the complexities of cytopathology. I asked a number of pathologists to give me recommendations for a starter textbook.

It is a readable introductory textbook that dispenses with obscure jargon and presents cytopathology in an understandable and organized manner. I highly recommend this text to any pathology resident, ... Read More
