By Dr. Wojciech Pawlina MD FAAA
Introduction: “Histology: A Text and Atlas – 9th Edition” offers a comprehensive and reader-friendly resource that combines a textbook and a full-color atlas. Designed for medical, dental, health professions, and undergraduate biology and cell biology students, this edition provides an in-depth understanding of histology’s clinical and functional correlates. With detailed insights into the structural and functional aspects of cells, tissues, and organs, this book is an essential resource for students seeking to grasp the complexities of histology.
Key Features:
- Integrated Approach: The 9th Edition reflects the latest advances in cellular and molecular biology, incorporating relevant imaging techniques. The book’s large, high-resolution illustrations and full-color photomicrographs enhance the understanding of microanatomy in vivid detail.
- Clinical Emphasis: System chapters align with curricula units and emphasize a clinical context, making this edition ideal for integrated curricula and standalone histology courses. New clinical information items are highlighted in blue text and presented in clinical boxes called “Folders,” addressing recent developments, including the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on tissue changes.
- Updated Content: This edition incorporates new information on cell biology with clinical correlates. It covers changes in normal tissue when infected by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus, providing explanations of cellular and molecular mechanisms and clinical features presented by patients.
- Expanded Topics: Various topics in cellular biology have been updated, including discussions on the mononuclear phagocytic system, resident tissue macrophages, immune cell activation, beige adipose tissue, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, conjunctiva-associated lymphatic tissue, peroxisomes’ biogenesis and function, and microsomes as a new form of cell-to-cell communication.
- In-depth Coverage: The histology of the female and male external genitalia and the skin chapter have been supplemented with more detailed information, encompassing skin color and aging.
- Introduction to 3D Microscopy: With advancements in microscopic methods, the methods chapter now includes a new basic discussion on three-dimensional (3D) microscopy methods.
Target Audience: This comprehensive textbook and atlas cater to a diverse audience of students and professionals in the fields of medicine, dentistry, health professions, biology, and cell biology. Whether integrated into curricula or used for standalone histology courses, this resource is invaluable for those seeking a profound understanding of histology’s clinical and functional aspects.
Conclusion: “Histology: A Text and Atlas – 9th Edition” remains an indispensable guide for students and professionals alike, offering an in-depth exploration of cellular and molecular biology, complemented by clinical correlates. Through its integration of the latest research findings and clinical information, this edition ensures that readers are equipped with up-to-date knowledge in the field.
