Cytopathology is above all a visual science. Never has that been more beautifully demonstrated than in the visually stunning The Art & Science of Cytopathology. Richard M. DeMay, MD has created the most unique cytopathology reference ever conceived, combining detailed discussions with more than 1,600 extraordinary color images, to help readers understand cellular relationships and master cytomorphology.
The Art & Science of Cytopathology functions as both textbook and atlas. The quality of presentation, and Dr DeMay's easy, natural language have made it the most popular cytopathology reference ever published. Its innovative formatting features summary lists and diagnostic tables to accent discussions and help the reader easily find and remember key points. Specific diagnostic criteria are illustrated by full-color cropped images embedded throughout the text. The synoptic atlases at the end of each chapter provide large, high-magnification, full-color images for a more complete view of the complexities and subtleties of interpretation. The text teaches fundamental principles and applies them to specific diagnostic processes.
No other book has ever transformed the possibilities of cytopathology reference works as The Art & Science of Cytopathology. Whether as textbook, atlas, or example of the bookmakers' art, these two volumes will become the most important, and admired additions to any cytopathology library.

art & science of cytopathology review:
Although ten years old, I find this book superior to a lot of others, more recent ones. Extremely detailed and surprisingly easy to read and understand, it is a state of the art manual for cytopathology, and a worthwhile investment for every cytologist.
A real guide and refrence:
Dr. DeMay R M, has choosen the most specific title for this book 'The Art & Sciences. This book is informative, written in a clear format and you can acquire all Cytology knowledge through the pages.
The Art & Science of Cytopathology:
It is a great book, except for the fact that I only received one volume out of the two volume set. So I paid almost $400 for something that should have cost half that unless I would have gotten BOTH of the books that were to come with it.
Very good:
The book written by Richard M DeMay is really the most useful book in cytopathology topic. This book is of high quality both in their pictures and its text. I recommend the book for the relevant individuals in this topic (cytopathology)
