Cells, tissues, and disease

"This text lays out the principles of general pathology for biomedical researchers, graduate students, medical students, and physicians. Disease processes are explained in light of malfunctions at the cellular level, offering an understanding of the clinical correlates of all aspects of fundamental cellular physiology and basic biomedicine. American Medical Writers Association Medical Book Awards' first place winner (Physician category) in 1997, the book has been fully revised to give readers deep, up-to-date understanding of disease states at the cell and tissue levels - cellular pathology, inflammation, immunopathology, vascular disturbance, and tumor biology. The Italian translation was published in 2000 by Casa Editrice Ambrosiana of Milan."--BOOK JACKET.
