This beautifully illustrated and well-researched cytopathology and nutrition reference book was created specifically to show the how desease processes begin at the cellular level when key micronutrients such as folic acid are deficient. There are 38 large, detailed color drawings that depict: 1) the genetics of the cell- transcription factors, protein synthesis, nucleotides; 2) the cytology of normal cells; 3) folic acid deficiency--due to diet, hormones, radiation/chemotherapy, and atrophic gastritis/intestinal metaplasia; 4) and the cytology of opportunistic viruses and fungi--HPV, HSV, CMV, moluscum contagiosum, RSV, adenovirus, candida, blastomycoses, pneumocystis, coccidioides, cryptococcus, and histoplasmosis. Each colorful labeled drawing is accompanied by a discussion and an outline listing its unique features. Part II is dedicated especially to the health professional interested in knowing the crucial roles vitamins and minerals play in guarding against genetic mutations that can result in diseases and conditions such as birth defects, cancer, and heart disease. The most compelling chapter is on folic acid with important discussions on its lack being associated with drug and alcohol use, and with the development of HPV as well as cervical and breast cancer. Extensive research has also been compiled on zinc deficiency, which Suzanne has studied intensely throughout the years. Other chapters include menopause and osteoporosis; estrogen risks; the antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E; and her diet, "The Color Diet." Part III contains (17) 8"x10" brilliantly colored cytology entities for intense study viewing. The Art of Cytology is an excellent reference for cytologists and nutritionists as well as any health practitioner or lay person interested in understanding how diseases effect cells, and what diseased cells look like under the microscope. It is also an interesting book to place in patient waiting rooms and offices. Learn the secrets of the cells in this rev
