Kumar (pathology, University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine) combines a complete picture of human pathology with a strong clinicopathological orientation in this seventh edition of a text/CD-ROM package. For this edition, almost all of the b&w photos have been replaced with color gross and microscopic photos, and many new color schematics, flow charts, and diagrammatic representations of disease have been added. Although the focus of the text on disease mechanisms remains, discussion of laboratory diagnosis of selected disorders has been included to highlight the importance of laboratory medicine in medical practice. The CD-ROM contains interactive clinical cases. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
