Overview
Haematology provides a broad-ranging overview of the study of blood, the dynamic fluid that interfaces with all organs and tissues to mediate essential transport and regulatory functions. Written with the needs of the biomedical scientist centre-stage, it provides a firm grounding in the physiology of blood, and the key pathophysiological states that can arise. It demonstrates throughout how an understanding of the physiology underpins the key investigations carried out by a biomedical scientist to forge a clear link between science and practice.

Reviews
A very good resource. Chapters are very well elaborated with latest up to date in depth information. Inclusion of learning objectives, summaries and in particular key terms and key points gives it advantage over many other texts currently available. Indu Singh, School of Medical Sciences, RMIT University Covers a range of haematological topics that are both up to date and very comprehensive. Gordon Lowe, School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Scienes, Liverpool John Moores University Laboratory aspects of haematology comprises about 50% of FRCPath exams. I feel that this book is indispensible for passing laboratory aspects in FRCPath exams, both written and oral. The diagrams and writing style are very clear and easy to understand. I highly recommend this book to the future trainees. Dr Yogesh Jethava, Specialist Registrar in Haematology, Guy's & St Thomas' Hospital
