"Review of the Second Edition: "The test cases are particularly variable, including pertinent management tips in the answers. The book also contains a set of useful self-assessment questions. Being pedantic, this could now benefit from an increase in the proportion of 'Single Best Answer Questions', now ubiquitous in undergraduate assessment. This will continue to be on my local recommended reading list, particularly for those students wanting a thorough understanding of Haematology, from the laboratory through to basic management. It would also be a good text for those starting a career in Haematology, such as Physician Associates and doctors early in their training." British Journal of Haematology Reviews of the First Edition: "Barbara Bain is well known to anybody in the UK or Ireland who has sat for the MRCPath examination. Her knowledge of morphology, her precision and her attention to details are legendary ... The information on various haematological conditions is clearly laid out and well illustrated ... I particularly liked the chapter on 'what you need to know before you graduate'." British Journal of Haematology "The author is very good at describing how various hematological diseases present in the real world ... I recommend this book very highly to medical students and to practicing clinicians alike." The Medical Media Review This core textbook provides a foundation in the molecular and cell biology that underpins haematology, allowing students to more easily understand the clinicopathological features of blood diseases, which are discussed in detail. The book covers all aspects of laboratory and clinical haematology, taking a practical approach by incorporating self-evaluation questions and learning objectives. These will give students not only the information needed to understand the topic but also clear indications of the core knowledge required to progress within the field of haematology. Building on the success of earlier editions authored by renowned haematologist Barbara J Bain, this textbook has been updated and expanded by seven experts in the field, with entirely new chapters on blood cancers and transfusion as well as new test cases and self-assessment questions. It is based on the curriculum of haematology teaching within Imperial College London, but it is equally suitable for medical students, trainee nurses, physician associate apprentices and biomedical science students from other institutions"-- Provided by publisher.
