Broken down into eight parts, this book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of: Laboratory Hematology, The Normal Hematologic System, Transfusion Medicine, Disorders ofand#160; Red Cells, Hemostasis and Coagulation; Benign Disorders of Leukocytes, The Spleen and/or Immunoglobulins; Hematologic Malignancies, and Transplantation.

Likewise, the editors have and#160;shed a completely new light on the process of stem cell transplantation in regards to both malignant and benign disorders, graft versus host disease, and the importance of long-term follow-up of transplantation survivors.
The textbook features an online, interactive companion that has a reference list for each chapter as well as two appendices one reviewing the clusters of differentiation (CD) molecules and one that reviews lab values and photomicrographs of the blood of animals.

Review
BMA Medical Book Awards 2014and#160;FIRST PRIZE- Wintrobeandrsquo;s Clinical Hematology, 13th Edition
and#160;
andldquo;It is a pleasure to have this book on my desktop- I am unlikely to part with it long enough to put it on a shelf. This book has been a favourite of mine for many years and yet this update has moved it on to another plane. The presentation is excellent and the book is one to be coveted. The online access and the regular planned updates will be a valuable resource to keep this book at the forefront of its field. There is a need to have a unifying text and there are relatively few books that manage to achieve this. I, therefore, feel that this fills a gap in the market. The book is very easy to read and therefore ideal for individuals andldquo;dipping inandrdquo; to read sections or to look up specific sections. The illustrations make it particularly appealing. The style lends itself well to trainees in the specialties it is designed for, and the referencing and online resource make it useful for specialists that need to span a broad cross-section of haematology. This is a great book and its new design makes it particularly appealing. I particularly like having everything in a single volume and the indexing is very clear.andrdquo; -and#160;BMA Medical Book Awards 2014 Reviewer

Synopsis
With the 13th edition of Wintrobe’s Clinical Hematology, a distinguished editorial team led by Dr. John Greer bridges the gap between the clinical practice of hematology and the basic foundations of science.
Revised to include a greater emphasis placed on biology and pathophysiology, this edition offers the reader a clear understanding of the relationship between basic molecular biology and every aspect of the clinical practice of hematology. Coupled with this comprehensive overview, the 13th edition presents a clear focus on clinical diagnosis and treatment of disease.
This edition includes 7 entirely new chapters and all chapters have been concisely revised in order to present more focused material. Also new to this edition are a special section on transplantation, more international contributors, and over 1,400 full-color illustrations. An excellent resource for anyone studying Hematology, Oncology, Internal Medicine, or Pathology.
Features:
• 30% of the chapters have additional or new contributors
• Greater emphasis on molecular genetics and pathophysiology
• Increased number of hematopathology illustrations
· Diagrams, figures, standard and electron micrographs, algorithms, schemas, and protocols—all in color.
· 4-color halftones and 2-color computer generated illustrations spread throughout the book to reinforce understanding and application of method
· The last three new chapters are entirely dedicated to Transplantation
