Rezensionen

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This book works as a stand-alone text for its intended purpose of providing a practical approach for diagnosis and management. ... Modern Hematology ... is well-designed to accompany structured lectures, practical laboratories, and demonstrations for hematology courses for medical students, medical technologists, and others in related fields. This textbook does the job well. It also is well suited to serve as a basic reference and a means of identifying where to obtain more comprehensive or specialized information." (James R. Egner, Journal of the American Medical Association, December, 2007)
