Junqueira's Basic Histology: Text and Atlas

by Anthony L. Mescher

The most authoritative, current, and beautifully illustrated histology text available--NEW chapter-ending multiple-choice questions review must-know material

A Doody's Core Title for 2017!
NEW clinical vignettes have been added to each chapter
Full-color, easy-to-understand drawings provide just the right level of detail necessary to reinforce key concepts and facilitate comprehension and retention of text material

For more than three decades, Junqueira's Basic Histology has been unmatched in its ability to explain the function of cell and tissue structure in the human body. Updated to reflect the latest research in the field, and enhanced with more than 1,000 illustrations, most in full-color, the Fourteenth Edition reflects the most comprehensive and modern approach to understanding medical histology available anywhere. This well-regarded classic is distinguished by chapters focusing on the cytoplasmic and nuclear compartment of the cell, the four basic tissues that form the organs, and each organ system.

In response to reader demand, the legends are now concise, stand-alone summaries of the illustrations. Applauded for its visual appeal, Junqueira's is enhanced by full-color micrographs that comprise a complete atlas of tissue sections. These state-of-the-art micrographs highlight the important features of every tissue and organ in the human body, while full-color, easy-to-understand drawings provide just the right level of detail necessary to clarify the text and make learning easier.

Fuck this book and the teachers who "pretended" to teach us histology.

Aquest llibre hauria de comptar com quatre. No sé quantes vegades me l’he rellegit, i no per plaer precisament. A més a més, l’he resumit. No sé quantes pàgines té, però els meus apunts són 34 folis. Hi ha molta palla entremig. Ara bé, el contingut molt bé i les fotografies i taules ajuden molt a entendre-ho. M’ha fet riure, plorar i qüestionar la meva vocació. Recomanat amb precaució.

Úprimne pred prečítaním som nenávidel histológiu. Po prečítaní stále nemám rád histológiu, ale vidím dôvod prečo jej štúdium je pre doktora dôležité. Učebnica je napísaná veľmi pochopiteľne a prehľadne. Kvantá obrázkou zjednodušujú pochopenie náročný konceptov a tém. Klinické poznámky sú najzaujímavejšou časťou ktorá ukazuje prečo je vskutku histológia podstatná. ale bod dávam dole len za to že som túto knihu musel čítať a je to histológia. 8/10

Beznadziejna. Nie polecam

[Lovisa · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nog för att jag framför allt läste sammanfattningarna, men jag har likväl läst samtliga kapitel. Lärde mig mycket, även om bättre läsupplevelser finns.

fuck histology

[Karol Jankowski · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fabuła zagmatwana, czasem przyjemna, czasem człowiekowi chciało się rzygać. Mieszane odczucia. Podziwiam się że cała przerobiłem praktycznie, no ale byłem przymuszony. Może za kilkadziesiąt lat wrócę do tego tytułu, ale na razie podziękuję

"Had to" read this for my histology class. My first impression the absolute first week was ugh, I'm not going to understand anything, screw this, I'll just use the lectures/internet resources. However, since being peppered by the lecturers to read it, and also some classmates saying it ain't that bad, I decided last one and a half week of class to skim through it.

Surprisingly readable actually and was nice complementary reading towards the end to solidify the knowledge and see the material in another context. Ended up not skimming that much, but actually reading throughly. Every chapter has a summary and some test questions which helped alot, so if you don't want to read too throughly you can still gather the key concepts in the end and test your knowledge.

I never read textbooks from cover to cover (who does, honestly?) but I've studied huge chunks of Junqueira's, more than 70 percent of it, so I feel somewhat safe to say "I've read it".
Of course, after more than a year I barely remember anything but I guess it's made my histology foundation relatively solid.
The pictures are gorgeous, too. (Because at the end of the day, books with cool pictures are better than books with no pictures and I sometimes think maybe that's why I got into biology in the first place.)

[Osterella · Rating 5 out of 5]

Honestly this is the prettiest book. We only grt like 2 questions from histology so we didn't have to read it much but THESE ARTISTS WENT OFF WITH THIS ONE. Every diagram every picture, the colour scheme, the summary boxes woahhh

جنكويرا!
لم أكن أتصور بأننا سنلتقي مرة أخرى بعد اكمالي للمادة، ولكن هذه المرة لست أنت من يقيمني بل أنا! يالا سخرية القدر
قمت بتقييمك بنجمة واحدة (رغم أنك لا تستحقها)
تبًا لك، لا أستطيع مسامحتك على كل ما فعلته لي
فلترقد بسلام ها هنا، وأتمنى ألا أراك مجددًا
وداعًا يا أسوء ما رأت عيناي.

Didn't read this straight through, but it is a good supplement to skim through after lab and lecture and was recommended by my professors.

BEST MEDICAL SCHOOL BOOK EVER. In love with histology ❤️❤️❤️

[Jesús De la Jara · Rating 4 out of 5]

ES un buen libro, quizás no cuenta con muchos otros referentes como para hacer una buena comparación, o por lo menos no lo he visto tanto.
Sí es de resaltar la falta de realismo pues los esquemas muchas veces son graficados y no tanto como se pueden observar en el microscopio mismo.
Pero por supuesto aborda con detalle todos los temas que un estudiante de histología debe saber a profundidad.

[Jen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Junq is one of the best histo texts I've seen, actually. Except for his occasional lie; best medical text in fall M1 after Constanzo.

[Peaches · Rating 4 out of 5]

Read it for the text only, not the pictures.

[Fatma Adel · Rating 5 out of 5]

i got the 13 the edition copy very wonderful helped me a lot in my study very clear pictures & well arranged short notes

[Thodoris · Rating 3 out of 5]

An overall good textbook for cytology. I even did a fast run through it for revision before my 3rd year General Pathology course.

[mehran · Rating 3 out of 5]

not bad

[Giorgia · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good.

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

There are a few places they make bold statements off young research that isn't totally confirmed, but it does read easy and teach basic histology students who are new to the subject.

[Xan · Rating 2 out of 5]

Construction of sentences are confusing.

[Mie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read cover to cover!
