Netter's Histology Flash Cards, Updated Edition, the first of its kind for histology, is a comprehensive collection of over 200 cards that supplement standard histology textbooks and atlases used in contemporary courses, including Netter's Essential Histology, 2nd Edition. It is a unique educational aid designed to stimulate and reinforce knowledge of key histologic features of cells, tissues, and organs. These flash cards encourage self-directed and group learning, and stress understanding of fundamentals rather than excessive detail with emphasis on correlation of structure to function.
The front of each flash card typically combines gross anatomic views or Netter illustrations for orientation with microscopic images. They are designed to bridge the gap between two- and three-dimensions by asking the user to identify specific structures. On the back are answers, concise explanatory text, and a clinical point relevant to each topic, which is pertinent to human disease. For more information on a topic, a cross-reference to Netter's Essential Histology, 2nd Edition is included on each card. The user-friendly format of each 4" x 6" flash card provides an easily portable study guide that is relevant in today's revised, problem-based, integrated curricula for students in medicine, dentistry, and undergraduate science programs and can aid in board review.
Finally, this set of flash cards is intended to inspire and awaken students' interest to the intricacies of the human body and appreciation of the sheer beauty of its cells, tissues, and organ systems.
