Vallie Brzenk
Ever since its first edition in 1971, this abbreviated version of Robbins and Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease has been very popular with both medical students and their instructors. Its emphasis was and still remains on synthesizing basic anatomic pathology facts with the clinical presentations of diseases. To help students understand the pathological changes, they are given a solid insight into the pathogenesis of those lesions. Modern basic science data are constantly revisited and the unity of pathology and other preclinical medical sciences is constantly emphasized. To understand the clinical correlates, students are taught pathophysiology and thus provided with a holistic approach to the most important and usually paradigmatic diseases. It is probably one of the most important lessons that they are taught in their medical schools, and we as teachers only hope that they will use this approach wisely and consistently for the rest of their professional lives. Presenting these lessons in an electronic format is probably the best way of reaching as many students as possible, and especially those who feel more comfortable with the electronic than the print book.
Clinical skills fundamental to clinical practice are taught and assessed throughout via structured clinical teaching workshops using a mix of simulated learning environments and interactions with patients. A broad overview of the body and its functions is presented. Specific content related to cardiorespiratory, alimentary tract, genitourinary and reproductive health is covered. Students apply basic knowledge of pharmacotherapeutics to the management of patients with conditions related to the above. Students are introduced to clinical sciences (anatomy, physiology, cell biology, biochemistry, pathology, immunology, genetics, pharmacology and the clinical behavioural sciences), history taking, physical examination and the rational use of appropriate, readily available diagnostic tests.
