Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Forget it, get the Robbins book.
This was the required textbook for my undergrad patho class. I agree with previous reviewers in regard to the lack of detail and organization. It is a book written mostly by RNs for nursing students and is not very well suited for anyone else.
There really is no reason anyone should buy this book. Clearly the Robbins book is the leader in the field of clinical pathophys. Medical and other students with more than a passing interest should head immediately toward that text. If Robbins is ... Read More
Rating:  - Excellent Patho Book
Excellent pathophysiology book for the nursing student or experienced clinician. Evreything is in here with plenty of pictures and tables. Great organization.
Rating:  - It weighs 10kg, yet nothing useful inside.
If you're a medical student, DON'T BUY THIS BOOK !!
I was so unlucky to get this book recommended for my pathophysiology studies, but clearly this book is for nurses or the average taxi-driver who want an easy introduction to the topic. There are a few lines about everything, so you won't understand anything and won't remember anything. This despite it's the bulkiest book I have! I can't even have it in my bookshelf, so now I use it as a stand for my bedroom alarm clock!

Rating: - Excellent, but you must sometimes dig a little deeper : ]
I purchased this patho book when in nursing school and have found it an excellent reference; more so now in the work field. There are occassions I've actually taken it to work to share info with co-workers. Everyone has been very receptive to it's clarity. However, sometimes you must use many different search key words in the index to find what you may particularly be interested in. The book itself is very well constructed including good quality paper and illustrations.
Rating: - Needs more organization
I personally took the course just a few months back, and felt that it needs to be organized better. It was very informative, but really confusing when trying to seperate different areas of focus. The section on hypersensitivity reactions, for example, needs better structure.
