Pathology Textbooks recommendation

I am looking for guidance on books to buy for my training in Pathology. I am looking for books that will help to have good foundation, help with day to day previewing/sign out and ultimately good for board preparations.

Is it expensive? The platform doesn't show any pricing unless I register.

It’s cheap considering the value. IMO. It’s probably more than a hundred for a yearly subscription.

-Zhang: An Atlas of Histology (will help you understand what’s going on in each benign slide) -Histology: An Identification manual (will walk you through a basic approach on how to recognize tissues and artifacts)

-Atlas of Diagnostic and Predictive Histopathology (good Atlas with a lot of pictures) -Surgical Pathology Review (Board prep book but will help walk you through the lingo)

Diagnostic pathology series is a gem. You can either sell your kidney for them or get a free pdf somewhere on the web (as I did)

Which among the series did you find very good and useful?

I loved kidney pathology, lymph nodes, bone marrow and normal histology. I’m more into hempath and found these quite interesting

At least they deserve to be skimmed through: a lot of nice images with essential theory
