Molecular Pathology: The Molecular Basis of Human Disease, Third Edition is assembled by a group of experts to discuss the molecular basis and mechanisms of major human diseases and disease processes, presented in the context of traditional pathology, with implications for translational molecular medicine. The book serves as a multiuse reference appropriate as a classroom teaching tool for medical students, biomedical graduate students, allied health students, and others (such as advanced undergraduates). Furthermore, it is valuable for pathology residents and other postdoctoral fellows who desire to advance their understanding of molecular mechanisms of disease beyond what they learned in medical/graduate school, and for practicing basic scientists and physician scientists who perform disease-related basic science and translational research, who require a ready information resource on the molecular basis of various human diseases and disease states.

In this new edition of the book, chapters have been fully updated as well as rearranged to make the topics flow more logically. Four new chapters have been added including content on the pathogenesis of fibrotic diseases, the mechanisms of mutation, the molecular basis of soft tissue disease and pathology, pathogenesis and pahtophysiology.

Key Features

New chapter on Pathogenesis of Fibrotic Diseases
New chapter on Mechanisms of Mutation
New chapter on Molecular Basis of Soft Tissue Diseases
New chapter on Pathology, Pathogenesis, and Pathophysiology
Explores the principles and practice of molecular pathology: molecular pathogenesis, molecular mechanisms of disease, and how the molecular pathogenesis of disease parallels the evolution of the disease
Explains the practice of "molecular medicine" and the translational aspects of molecular pathology
