This timeless pocket atlas is the ideal visual companion to histology and cytology textbooks. First published in 1950 and translated into eight languages, Kuehnel's Pocket Atlas of Cytology, Histology and Microscopic Anatomy is a proven classic. The fully revised and updated fourth edition contains 745 full-color illustrations - almost 200 more than were included in the third edition. Superb, high-quality microphotographs and pathologic stains are accompanied by legends, informative texts, and numerous cross-references. Key features of the updated fourth edition: More than 700 high-quality illustrations using advanced techniques in histology and electron microscopy Practical, information Concise and focused text Key concepts and ideas illustrated in less than 550 pages Ideal for exam preparation, this world-class book is an indispensable visual study tool for medical, dental and biology students. It can also serve as an outstanding review and refresher text.

Bridging the gap between textbook diagrams and the complex reality of histological preparations, this magnificent atlas of human microanatomy is designed to help students understand the complex structures encountered when viewing microscopic sections of tissues. Instead of simply depicting an individual section, each drawing is a compilation of the key structures and features seen in many preparations from similar tissues or organs. Invaluable to students in a range of life science and medical disciplines including human and veterinary medicine, dentistry, mammalian biology, pharmacy, and nursing.

Human Microanatomy is a comprehensive histology text that analyzes human structure and function from the subcellular to organ level of organization. In addition to emphasizing medically relevant information, each chapter considers developmental and evolutionary aspects of microanatomy while also using celebrity medical histories to help provide context for accompanying descriptions of normal histology. As key elements of those descriptions, various microanatomical features are illustrated in over 1400 images ranging from concept-clarifying line drawings to high-resolution light and electron micrographs. Text illustrations are further organized into cohesive collections with detailed captions that routinely link molecular and cellular aspects to anatomical and physiological properties. Each chapter also includes a preview, pictorial summary, and self-study quiz to help elucidate important concepts. By incorporating features like medical histories, biological correlates, and annotated image plates, Human Microanatomy aims to provide an appealing and informative treatment of histology for readers who are interested in the structural bases of cell, tissue, and organ functioning.
