PREFACE TO THE TENTH EDITION
The tenth revised edition of the textbook of cytology, general histology, and general embryology reflects a number of new data on the molecular, cellular, tissue, and genetic levels of knowledge. This new information is reflected to varying degrees in almost all sections of the textbook. The presented tenth revised edition is aligned with some of the best contemporary international textbooks and guides in the field.
This textbook is necessary for the preparation of students of medicine and dentistry in the study subject „Cytology, general histology and general embryology’, but it will also be useful in teaching pharmacy students, nurses, midwives, physiotherapists, physician assistants as well as other specialties in medicine and biology.
The contents of the textbook reflect information that is consistent with modern knowledge of cellular and molecular biology, molecular and genetic mechanisms in tissues and organs, the processes of premature human development, including some pathological changes in this development. This information would be essential for various specialties in modern medicine.
