Quintessential Source Book for a Hematology Laboratory
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
It is strange why more books of this kind dont get written in Laboratory Medicine, however the basic principles and premises of the practice of Hematology, nee Haematology, stand the same as its first edition in 1950. Whenever I have to teach a new summer student how to draw and stain a blood smear or count cells in a Neubauer's Chamber I take recourse to this book. Don't even throw away your old copies of books as with each new edition there is considerable attrition of valuable trouble shooting advice,like setting up a simple Autohemolysis Test for diagnosing Hereditary Spherocytosis, from old hands due to pressure for space with the advent of new Technology. This book is meant for the practicing hematologist in the field, he be a Prince or a Pauper.

As it's title suggests, this is the book for the practical haematologist--at all levels.It's THE essential reference book full of THE principles, THE methods and techniques, THE intepretation of results...need I go on?No serious haematology laboratory should be without it. I know colleagues with 20+ years of experience who constantly refer to it.If you can't afford it for yourself, demand your laboratory manager buy it. If he/she won't, find one that will!
