Synopsis :

The new edition of this comprehensive text presents a complete guide to hematology, beginning with normal hematopoiesis and covering diseases of erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid and megakaryocytic origin. It also addresses complementary testing areas such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics and molecular diagnostics. An excellent chapter on automated cell counting compares and contrasts major instruments. The easy-to-follow format promotes effortless teaching and learning, with colour figures organised as close to the citation as possible for easy reference. This full-colour edition is generously illustrated with high-quality photographs, drawings, and extensive full-color slides. It features case studies relevant to the topic in each chapter, follow-up questions at the end, useful chapter summaries, and much more. All-new information on molecular diagnostics and a completely revised section on hemostasis and thrombosis by George Fritsma bring the text up-to-date with current content. Readers will find all the essential content needed in a superb, quick-reference laboratory resource, as well as the pedagogy and accessible reading level that make it an ideal teaching textbook!The well-known, well-respected author brings her expertise and authoritative approach to this edition's extensive updates and additions. A full-color design makes the text more reader-friendly, highlights special features, and reinforces important details. The same diagram used to illustrate general hematoipoietic theory is broken down into component parts in the sections on erythropoiesis, granulopoiesis, lymphopoiesis, etc. Electron micrographs help students visualize the continuum of cell maturation at the DNA level. A practical focus shows students how to apply pure science to their work in the laboratory setting, citing examples of clinical implications for theoretical information. Thorough, comprehensive coverage with a balanced and accessible writing style makes the book ideal for use in any programme. New line drawings, as well as beautiful full-color photomicrographs from the award-winning Carr/Rodak: Clinical Hematology Atlas enhance the text and clarify important concepts. Case studies at the beginning of each chapter, often featuring follow-up questions at the end, draw readers into the subject and make passive study more interactive and engaging. Chapter-at-a-Glance summary lists at the end of each chapter recaps key ideas in a bulleted, student-friendly format.
