Training Pathologists with Books (Wheater)

The electronic book (e-book) is displacing paper at a dizzying pace. Education is no exception and neither is education related to specialization in Medicine. Pathology requires a great commitment to the image, digital or analogic, and an immense immersion in the study of a doctrine that has become incomprehensible. Specialization, on many occasions, prevents us from contemplating with perspective the basic pillars that support a discipline, medical in this case. And the book on paper, the classic volume filled with histological and cytological photographs or increasingly complex diagrams, are subjected to the scrutiny of the client, a doctor in training who begins a long journey that will surely end the same day he their days end. Pathology is an exceptionally interesting medical specialty, practical and theoretical at the same time, and very visual. For pathologists, the paper book is still a reality today.
