Riassunto

A fully revised and updated new edition of this basic haematology text for medical students. Very user-friendly, it concentrates on the key elements of the subject, giving students what they need to know without any confusing extraneous detail. An increased emphasis on treatment makes the third edition even more practical and clinically relevant. Information is introduced gently and in logical stages, and is presented in short, easily digested chapters. The numerous excellent illustrations complement the text and increase its accessibility.
