Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com Pathology and Microbiology for Mortuary Science is a comprehensive book for the study of pathology and microbiology written for mortuary science students, as a resource for educators, and as a reference for funeral directors and embalmers. The book is designed around the current American Board of Funeral Service Education?s Curriculum Outlines for pathology and microbiology. Quick reference appendices provide a review of pertinent anatomy and physiology. Case studies in chapters that discuss specific diseases allow learners to review the postmortem condition of human remains in relation to the disease. Good book for entry level mortuary students | Customer Rating: | | I bought this book with the goal to review current mortuary science information. Since I have graduated from a mortuary sciences program many years ago, I found this book was an overall worthwhile review with a few updates for me. It is basic enough and covers relevant material and I can see why it would be used as a text for entry level mortuary science students. My two reservations are: 1. The text is only a basic survey level book. (Having recently taken a 5 unit college course in Microbiology, I quickly realized it is not even close to breadth or depth in comparison to texts for college level Microbiology.) Therefore, I concluded this text can't be used as a significant or a complete resource, to aid those already in the field, or those who may need more knowledge. 2. The book is lacking in the aspect of bridging the material to direct application for funeral home employees and embalmers; the few random mentions of such could be greatly improved and would make the book far more useful to all level of readers. What few "connections" that were there, I did find helpful, but I found wanting far more that this book offered. |
