Is anyone currently reading from or browsed through Silverberg's Principles and Practice of Surgical Pathology and Cytopathology?
Is it worth buying Silverberg instead of a combo of Sternberg and Demay?
I have Silverberg, Demay, and Cibas.
I really like Silverberg. The cyto side-by-side with the surg path is very nice and presents a whole-view approach to various entities.
Baby Demay is alright. (almost) Everybody in our program has it. People swear by it. I'm a bit underwhelmed. When you read it, the descriptions all seem to say the same things.
Cibas I really like because it has nice like bulleted tables for a lot of entities with the important points, then semi-wordy descriptive comments. Nice pictures also.
As for reading... I read 25 pages a day, everyday. It doesn't sound like a lot, but you can get through Robbins in 2.5 months, Henry in 2.5 months, etc. This takes me about 2.5 hours a day. Then if I'm on surg path I try to read on at least 2 of the more interesting cases for whatever run I'm on.
