Pathology: Queen Mary, UOL Notes
The text is presented as Word files. Your computer will open them when you click on them, or you can download them. There are various disadvantages about these notes.
- They are not finished
- There is no index
- The pictures have not all been done! Those which have been done are in Coreldraw. They comprise many of the immunology pictures, and one microbiology picture. They will be given out as a booklet.
There are some advantages.
- They are free.
- They are being continually updated.
- You can come and argue with the author (me).
Good luck, and best wishes, Nigel Yeatman, 2004
