Summary: Review
Comment: This book does a good job of bringing together terminology. eg. Some professors may use the term basal lamina, while others basement membrane. This book clarifies these situations well.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great histo resource for studying
Comment: Wheater's is a great atlas that provides the visual context to understand histology. Short summaries accompany each photograph to outline key points; staining type, cell type, other features. The pictures at the end of each chapter were very useful for self studying.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wheater's Histology
Comment: Basic histology isn't the most thrilling of topics, but this book makes it a little less painful. Excellent quality images and easy-to-digest commentary make this text a good supplement to any histology or physiology course.
Customer Rating:
Summary: excellent atlas
Comment: If you're taking a histo course, this is a fabulous atlas. Everyone at my school buys it, it has clearly labelled photographs of slides as well as very neat diagrams explaining how certain things work. Includes electron micrographs of cells for which EM's are helpful. Very very good book, I highly recommend it, it helps alot.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A text and an atlas...good at neither
Comment: This text tries to be both a text and an atlas in one and is unfortunately good at neither one. The text is very very basic and lacking in detail. The sections are poorly stained, out of focus and do not clearly demonstrate the structures. The pictures are small and of poor quality. Considering the price, I would recommend spending the extra 30-40 bucks and buy Gartner and Hiatt for an atlas and Junquera for a text instead of paying for this text.
