Synopses & Reviews
Written by one of the world's leading haematologists, together with three renowned histopathologists, Bone Marrow Pathologyprovides a practical guide to bone marrow disease. Now in its Third Edition, the text has been extensively revised and rewritten to reflect the latest advances in the field. Written with great precision and clarity of style, the book combines all the techniques that are currently being applied to bone marrow diagnosis, including immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and the diagnostic role of cytogenetic and molecular genetic analysis.
Review
'...of outstanding quality, this book should secure a place as a benchbook for students and practitioners of haematology and pathology alike'
Cytopathology
'This is certainly the best book so far on this subject. It should appeal to those who do not regularly report marrows, as marrow histology can be very challenging in this setting.'
Australian Journal of Medical Science
'I wholeheartedly recommend the book to trainees and practising pathologists, whether in haematology or in histopathology, and to a wider medical readership as a clear and informative text.'
Royal College of Pathologists Bulletin.
