Buy this book......take it from me!! - By: , 02 May 2003 
As a student studying under B.J.Moxhamin Cardiff University you may think that I'm biasedin my judgement butin all honesty this book will be extremely helpfulin your first year. In addition to this it is one of very few books that will also get you through a huge porportion of your second year course as well!! It contains all the anatomy of the head & neck you will coverin your first year & thenin your second year it will take you through your oral ecosystems course(development of teeth etc.). To sum it this book is good value for money & concise & I would definately suggest you buy this as very few books can be said to be usefulin your first & second year!!
berkovitz- oral anotomy , histology and embryology - By: , 11 Dec 2002 
as a first year dentist i would highly recommmed it to those out there who are 1st years too. the book is well detailed, maybe more than it should be , but it covers everything that it needs to do. the use of many histological & other general pictures helps immenselyin understanding many of the topics. if your looking at buying berkovitz i would suggest you look at oral bioscience by d.b ferguson. it covers many of the same topics, maybe more to the point, but can be hard to understand. due to lack of diagrams/slides.
the best oral biology book...no doubt - By: , 22 Jan 2002 
This book written by Dr berkovitz is absolutely excellent, there are lots of illustrations, each one with detailed information explaining what can be seen. The book is laid out very well &in a logical & easy to follow manner & the best thing is that it is writtenin english, by that i mean the language which most students understand & not the language that scientists speak. Dr bekovitz is probably the most leading scientistin this area & this is reflectedin his book. This is excellent for people studying Oral anatomy but also for those who are just interestedin the topic as it starts from the basics & proceedsin an easy to understand manner to the more detailed aspects. The only disadvantage is that it is quite big & doesn't fit into any normal size bags, but then the upside to that is that people on the trains read the title & think you are really clever!!
