Robbins and Cotran Atlas of Pathology is specifically designed to accompany Robbins and Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease, 7th Edition. More than 1,200 full-color illustrations richly depict all of the major conditions that are most commonly covered in pathology courses and on the USMLEs. Gross and microscopic pathology images are complemented by full-color conceptual line drawings and corresponding radiologic images.This is a new addition to the Pathologic Basis of Disease series of books. With an attractive purple and blue coloured cover and is 529 pages long. The book is divided into 20 chapters that are said to closely follow the second unit of the seventh edition of the big Robbins Pathologic Basis of Disease and the Basic Pathology textbooks. One may ask why an atlas is needed to compliment such a comprehensive predominantly undergraduate text. The author states in the preface that the majority of students are visual learners and readily take advantage of visual study material this book therefore is said to provide even more examples of disease processes in a visual format. The aim of the book is also to provide a greater clinicopathological correlation of disease processes by including photographs of patients, radiographs and gross anatomical specimens as well as the histology.
