What I love the most is the improvement on the clarity and other visual aspects of the images used in the text. Robbins Essential Pathology still remains my text book of choice for Pathology for all students and practioners of health sciences.

Excellent resource for pathophysiology for students on advanced practice courses. The text is accessible with a good mix of figures demonstrating pathophysiology and then cytology/histology images. Presented in an easy to read format with just the right level of detail.
