Product Description
Here is the second edition of the practical, bench-side reference that provides students with a foundation in understanding and interpreting histologic and cytologic preparations.

* chapter introductions and figure legends have been heavily edited to augment and clarify content.

* a detailed glossary containing nearly 750 words.

* more than 100 enlargements of selected color figures that increase perspective.

* 13 new color figures have been added and four pen and ink figures have been redrawn.

* all of the original Kodachrome slides have been rephotoraphed and re-labeled.

When you want a better visual presentation of histologic features in the tissues of domestic animals, reach for this improved edition of Color Atlas of Veterinary Histology.

5 out of 5 stars Great Service, Good condition, Fast shipping   September 1, 2008
The book came as described, which was new! and in a timely fashion. Service was great, I plan on buying more books through Amazon.


5 out of 5 stars What a book!!!   October 10, 2001
An amazing book with great colorful pictures. It begins from how to prepare histologic sections to the description of the most important tissues, organs and systems of eight species (dog, cat, horse, cow, sheep, goat, pig, and chicken). Before the pictures, the book gives you a very useful and brief chapter introduction. It also has a detailed glossary containing nearly 750 words. A necesary book for a veterinary student. El mejor libro de histologia veterinaria que he visto!


5 out of 5 stars an atlas with great pictures and concise text   October 7, 2000
 8 out of 8 found this comment useful.

This atlas provides wonderful full color pictures of cells and tissues from several animal groups. The pictures are logically grouped by tissue type with examples from different species being shown together. Many of the sections have brief, but useful introductions. All the pictures are well labeled and have a brief discription of important characteristics of the specific cells or tissue types presented.

It likely to be useful to individuals working in veterinary science, animal science or animal research.
