Summary: "Since Dr. Crowley last updated the Ninth Edition there was an increased emphasis on how changes in the genome are expressed as disease and the new authors did a very heavy 10th edition revision covering the larger role in both diagnosis and therapy. While Dr. Crowley's organization of the text was preserved, starting with six general chapters followed by chapters on organ systems and their diseases, more information was provided on the cellular and molecular roots of disease. Because of the heavy revision done for the 10th edition, the focus on the 11th edition will be on addressing any missing information as identified by the reviewers and solidifying the product package and adding mini video lectures that the author is creating. however, in some instances, the authors did raise the level of content a bit too high so they will be evaluating these areas as identified by reviewers"--
