Think twice before getting the kindle edition, poorly edited. L. Ebert This review is for the kindle edition. I'm finding mistakes, especially right off the bat they mix up box 1-1 and 1-2. The reproductions of the tables that are images is horrible, and the lack of any kind of page reference makes this a pain to correlate with the teacher's outline. If you are going to charge nearly as much for the kindle bo. "Five Stars" according to Austin. Excellent! Just what I needed for my pathology class!. "There are NO page numbers given like some kindle textbooks" according to Amazon Customer. There are NO page numbers given like some kindle textbooks. It only gives location pages, which means nothing when comparing it to class pages. A regular pdf format e textbook is much easier to work with and take notes on. It is also slow in scrolling pages.
