Book Reviews of BRS Cell Biology and Histology (Board Review Series)
Book Review: All You'll Need for Microanatomy
Summary: 5 Stars
I admit, I'm a bit biased here because for my Microanatomy class we were assigned Gartner & Hiatt's Color Textbook of Histology. Since they wrote this as well, it was a great companion to the textbook. In fact, the organization is essentially (if not exactly) identical, & in this format you're given everything you need to study in under 20 pages rather than in several long chapters. This book was a lifesaver for me. I used it in conjunction with BRS Phys - get the physiology down pat, then completing the story by going through all the different cell types discussed in this book. It's a fast, clear read with some great clinical correlations at the end of each chapter. My only complaint would be that the review questions tend to focus solely on the page or so of CCs at the end & less on the concepts presented in the outlines. If you have a Cell Bio course separate from your Micro or Histo course (as I did), I don't know if the Cell Bio coverage (only 3 chapters) will be sufficiently in depth, but what's there is definitely high yield. Bottom line - you'll definitely want this book if you're using G&H's text. If not, I thought it was a great (& fast) review book for the NBME, & ultimately worth the money regardless of your assigned text.

Each chapter also features a high-yield section on clinical correlations. The book is concise and well illustrated, with line drawings and electron micrographs. This edition features updated content, additional electron micrographs, new conceptual line drawings, and review questions in current USMLE format.
