The third edition of Ross. Romrell and Kaye was very good, the 4th 
edition was terrible. I reviewed it for the publisher and was shocked at 
how they had ruined a good book. Even though it was billed as a "text 
and atlas" the atlas figures were never mentioned in the text!? I have 
not seen the 5th edition but histology has not changed much!  Most new 
editions just add some cute stuff and/or change italics to bold face 
type in hopes of getting buyers to "upgrade".
