Description
This is a unique text providing a core knowledge base for those with little exposure to molecular biological methods. "Molecular Haematology" provides essential reading for those with minimal exposure to, or understanding of, molecular biological techniques. There is an extensive glossary and each chapter is written with the non-specialist in mind. "Molecular Haematology" is ideal for: trainees and residents in hematology and hematologists in practice.Why buy this book? This is a unique text providing a core knowledge base for those with little exposure to molecular biological methods. It focuses on the clinical relevance of molecular biology in haematology. It features complete revision of text and ten new chapters to cover all groundbreaking developments in the field. Each chapter summarizes the impact made by molecular research on understanding the pathogenesis of a variety of blood disorders. This title includes international team of contributors recruited from top specialist units around the world.
Reviews / Votes
"...very readable for those unfamiliar with molecular biology or specialized aspects of hematology...good balance between descriptions of basic mechanisms and discussions of their implications for clinical practice." New England Journal of Medicine "...an excellent and easily accessible compendium, containing detailed overviews, covering the whole range of hematological disorders...highly recommendable, as a valuable reference, both for the seasoned molecular biologist and the practicing clinician." European Journal of Haematology ON THE PREVIOUS EDITION "This is a superb addition to any laboratory's library. Essential reading for all fellowship candidates in haematology and general. It is also suitable for use as text at undergraduate and postgraduate level. Highly recommended." Australian Journal of Medical Science"...easy to read guide book that will help us all through the maze of new jargon and techniques. It will be an asset to any haematologist's bookshelf."
