Summary:
Visual Mnemonics for Pathology uses cartoon drawings that make the material easier for you to learn with tremendous recall months later. Whether you need a fast Pathology review for your course or USMLE Step 1, Visual Mnemonics for Pathology is the fun way to study! Laurie Marbas and Erin Case, medical students at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, developed this series using "concept diagramming" to shorten their study time and help recall the facts. Each page is formatted with plenty of space for notes and reminders, and some students color in the drawings for better recall. Perfect for medical students -- physician assistants, nurse practitioners and related health professionals will also find "Visual Mnemonics" valuable.
