Pathology Made Ridiculously Simple (Medmaster Ridiculously Simple)

I have been using this book as the perfect companion to my 2nd-year Pathology course. Why is this book so great? Well, they make things simple using AWESOME cartoons and great neumonics. This is the PERFECT way to study and retain all the info that comes with such a huge topic as pathology. I would always read this book FIRST, get a good overall understanding of the topic of the week, and THEN go on to read the detailed patho-books (such as Robbin's).I am surely planning on keeping this book throughout my entire education and career since it is a great quick guide for refreshing on the clinically useful pathology and broad-overview of critical pathology.I have been recommending to my classmates both this book (Pathology Made Ridiculously Simple) and actually most of the other books by MedMaster (Microbio, Neuroanatomy, and pharmacology are the favorites of mine).

My daughter is a nursing student. She said this book takes the material from her classroom text much easier to read, review and understand. She also loves the diagrams as she is a pictorial learner.

very good study tool, though some of the information is a little off, but otherwise great books for quick study. Used it to study for Board exams and it was really helpful.

This book is great as a warm up before tackling the chapter in Robbins. The cartoons, mnemonics, and easy tone make pathology a little less intimidating.I would read the chapter in this book first, and it made reading Robbins much less overwhelming.I would not use this book as a primary source for studying path, but it has turned out to be extremely valuable in helping me really understand what I'm reading. It clarifies all those little things you forgot from first year that you need again for second year.For the price, and the frustration it will save you when learning path, I would say this is a good buy.

thanks

This book simplifies a very complicated subject. You must understand your primary text book but this book will pull together the contents for easier review.

Very easy read book, beneficial for any nurse, or pathology class.

It lacks some of the information needed to be studied for the steps and for class, but its a good review, never understood well the cd it brought
