This book is based on the general and systemic study of the body tissues.The study material is presented in an easy-to-read format. The illustrations are microphotographs of actual student slides, and are labeled profusely to facilitate recognition of the tissues in the normal systems. Great care has been taken to demonstrate all the tissues under scanner, low power of the microscope as well as under the high power.

Recognition is facilitated by labeling and drawing attention to the arrangement. The details are beautifully classified, demonstrating how structure decides the functioning of the cells and tissues. Embryological origins are indicated to logically show how origins dictate functions.The notes are brief, and outline the layers in the wall of hollow organs or their arrangements in solid organs, the function of each layer, and how the same tissue is arranged in different locations of a system. Each set of microphotographs and subject matter is followed by tabular columns that facilitate learning using keywords and concepts.
