Synopsis:
  1. Remarkably up to date.Provides the reader with a current understanding of disease mechanisms and deserves a place on the shelf of any health care professional, irrespective of specialty or level of training.- - JAMA, review of previous edition -Praiseworthy for the breadth and depth of its content and its ability to remain up to date. It serves the needs not only of the beginning student, the pathologist in training, but all practitioners of medicine with intellectual curiosity.- - Modern Pathology, review of previous edition -Bound to retain its standing as the definitive source for learning, or relearning, the principles of the pathologic basis of disease.- - Advances in Anatomic Pathology, review of previous edition -This book is even shorter than before. That is?really impressive. I cannot but admire this book, which I keep re-reading since I entered?Pathology in 1966. Wow, ?it shows that even a first class?book can be improved - hard to believe but true.?It is very readable and even funny in some places. The text is nicely laid out and the book looks less bulky than the previous edition. The illustrations are excellent. Even though the book is definitely for the new generations, I am sure that it will be welcomed by senior pathologists trying to keep up with the times - I doubt that I am the?only old timer eager to?re-read it.- - Ivan Damjanov, MD, PhD, author of Pathology Secrets and Pathophysiology
Review:
  1. "This book is even shorter than before. That is really impressive. I cannot but admire this book, which I keep re-reading since I entered Pathology in 1966. Wow, it shows that even a first class book can be improved – hard to believe but true.It is very readable and even funny in some places. The text is nicely laid out and the book looks less bulky than the previous edition. The illustrations are excellent. Even though the book is definitely for the new generations, I am sure that it will be welcomed by senior pathologists trying to keep up with the times – I doubt that I am the only old timer eager to re-read it." - Ivan Damjanov, MD, PhD, author of Pathology Secrets and Pathophysiology "Pathologic Basis of Disease continues to be the most appropriate text for all students of pathology, be they in medical or health curricula, studying medical sciences in the context of another field such as engineering or business, and for professionals requiring a rapid reference to common pathologic conditions and pathways. Anyone who interfaces with human illness should have a copy of this book." - Michael A. Seidman, M.D., Ph.D.Department of Pathology, Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA

Preface:
As we launch the 8th edition of Pathologic Basis of Disease we pause to look back 50 years ago, when the first edition of this book, entitled ŖPathology with Clinical Correlationsŗ was published. (For thosewho may not know, the first three editions were published under this name and so the current Ŗ8th editionŗ is really the 11th edition of this book.) In the preface of the first edition, Stanley Robbins wrote: • ŖBut the study of morphology is only one facet of pathology. Pathology contributes much to clinical medicine. The pathologist is interested not only in the recognition of structural alterations, but also in their significance, i.e., the effects of these changes on cellular and tissue function and ultimately the effect of these changes on the patient. It is not a discipline isolated from the living patient, but rather a basic approach to a better understanding of disease and therefore a foundation of sound clinical medicine.ŗ • ŖThe why's and how's are as important as the what's.ŗ In today's vocabulary, what Robbins said in 1957 was that pathology is the study of the mechanism of diseases and morphology is a tool (the only one available at that time) to gain insight into pathogenesis and clinical correlations. Over the past 50 years, this focus has not changed and it remains the guiding principle for the current edition. The main difference is that now we have many more tools to supplement morphology, including molecular biology, genetics, and informatics, to name a few. Indeed, it might be said that this book presents the molecular basis of human disease with clinical correlations. This edition, like all previous ones, has been extensively revised, and some areas have been completely rewritten. A few examples of significant changes are as follows: • Chapter 1 has been completely reorganized to include the entire spectrum of cellular responses to injury, from adaptations and sublethal injury to cell death. • Chapter 3 , covering tissue repair and wound healing, has been extensively revised to include new and exciting information on stem cell biology, growth factor signaling, and the mechanisms that underlie fibrosis. • Chapter 5 includes a completely rewritten section on molecular diagnosis that reflects rapid advances in DNA sequencing technology. The principles of genome-wide analysis, now becoming a powerful tool in the study of complex human diseases like cancer and diabetes, have also been added. • Chapter 9 has been completely revised and reorganized in view of the increasing importance of environmental factors in human diseases. • Chapter 17 has been completely rewritten and highlights new insights into the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease and gastrointestinal cancers. • Chapter 22 , covering diseases of the female genital tract, includes discussion of the molecular basis of cancer, endometriosis, and preeclampsia. • In addition to the revision and reorganization of the text, many new photographs and schematics have been added and a large number of the older Ŗgemsŗ have been enhanced by digital technology. Thus, we hope that even the veterans of Robbins Pathology will find the illustrations and figures sparkling and fresh. Wherever appropriate, we have blended new discoveries into the discussion of pathogenesis and pathophysiology, while never losing sight that the Ŗstate of the artŗ has little value if it does not enhance the understanding of disease mechanisms. As in the past, we have not avoided discussions of Ŗunsolvedŗ problems because of our belief that many who read the text might be encouraged to embark on a path of discovery. Despite the changes highlighted above, our goals remain the same as those articulated by Robbins and Cotran over the past many years. • To integrate into the discussion of pathologic processes and disorders the newest established information availableŕmorphologic as well as molecular. • To organize information into logical and uniform presentations, facilitating readability, comprehension, and learning. • To maintain the book at a reasonable size and yet provide adequate discussion of the significant lesions, processes, and disorders. Indeed, we have reduced the girth and the weight of this book by trimming out about 80 pages (making it less useful for weight lifting). • To place great emphasis on clarity of writing and proper use of language in the recognition that struggling to comprehend is time-consuming and wearisome and gets in the way of the learning process. • To make this first and foremost a student textŕused by students throughout all years of medical school and into their residenciesŕbut, at the same time, to provide sufficient detail and depth to meet the needs of more advanced readers. We have been repeatedly told by readers that up-todatedness is a special feature that makes this book very valuable. We have strived to remain current by providing new information and references from recent literature, many published in 2008 and some from the early part of 2009. However, older classics have also been retained to provide original source material for advanced readers. We are now into the digital age and so the text will be available online to those who own the print version. Such access gives the reader the ability to search across the entire text, bookmark passages, add personal notes, and use PubMed to view references, and has many other exciting features. In addition, also available online are case studies, previously available separately as the Interactive Case Study Companion developed by one of us (VK) in collaboration with Herb Hagler, PhD, and Nancy Schneider, MD, PhD, at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. The cases are designed to enhance and reinforce learning by challenging students to apply their knowledge to solve clinical cases. A virtual microscope feature enables the viewing of selected images at various magnifications. This edition is also marked by the addition of a new coauthor, Jon Aster. All four of us have reviewed, critiqued, and edited each chapter to ensure the uniformity of style and flow that have been the hallmarks of the book. Together, we hope that we have succeeded in equipping the readers with the scientific basis for the practice of medicine and in whetting their appetite for learning beyond what can be offered in any textbook.
