Moving beyond the strict boundaries of tissue and cell histology, "Histology for Pathologists" focuses on the borderland between histology and pathology - frequently the most problematic of territories for the pathologist. In this guide, international specialists in pathology, histopathology, anatomical pathology, surgical pathology, and neuropathology describe in detail the histologic structure, composition and function of tissues from the perspective of most value to the pathologist. Each of the major organ systems is systematically reviewed - additional coverage provided on structures of special significance - encompassing in the 48 chapters; the cardiovascular system; the spleen; reactive lymph nodes; the central and peripheral nervous systems; the endocrine and neuroendocrine systems; the gastrointestinal system; the kidney; the male and female urogenital systems; the respiratory system; bone, muscle, and connective tissue; the eye; the ear; skin; and nail. In most chapters, frequently encountered prepathologic conditions are examined as well as fully developed pathologic alterations. Of special note: deviations from the normal related to such variables as age, sex, and race are highlighted and clarified. Developed by leading international specialists in pathology, histopathology, anatomical pathology, surgical pathology, and neuropathology, this reference guide to histopathology demonstrates the significance of histologic structures in terms of pathologic interpretation. With the aid of more than 1,600 detail-revealing illustrations, the contributors describe the histologic structure, composition, and function of tissues from the perspective of most value to the pathologist. Throughout, there are insights into the histologic subtleties and nuances that frequently elude the nonhistologist - unusual variations in staining reactions, little-known fixation artifacts, and even revealing but frequently missed gross observations. The 48 chapters cover all the major organ systems and provide additional information on structures of special significance. Commonly encountered prepathologic conditions are examined, as well as fully developed pathologic alterations. Deviations from the normal related to such variables as age, sex, and race are highlighted and clarified.

The third edition of this work has been revised and expanded to reflect advances in our knowledge of the structure and functions of the prefrontal cortex. Highlights of this edition include a new chapter on neuroimaging and information on computer modelling. In the light of evidence examined in this edition - particularly extensive data from imaging studies - Dr Fuster formulates more precisely his theoretical views on prefrontal function, emphasizing the essential role of the prefrontal cortex in the temporal organization of behaviour.

This book encapsulates over three decades of the author’s work on comparative functional respiratory morphology. It provides insights into the mechanism(s) by which respiratory means and processes originated and advanced to their modern states. Pertinent cross-disciplinary details and facts have been integrated and reexamined in order to arrive at more robust answers to questions regarding the basis of the functional designs of gas exchangers. The utilization of oxygen for energy production is an ancient process, the development and progression of which were underpinned by dynamic events in the biological, physical, and chemical worlds. Many books that have broached the subject of comparative functional respiratory biology have only described the form and function of the ‘end-product,’ the gas exchanger; they have scarcely delved into the factors and the conditions that motivated and steered the development from primeval to modern respiratory means and processes. This book addresses and answers broad questions concerning the critical synthesis of multidisciplinary data, and clarifies previously cryptic aspects of comparative respiratory biology.
