Please try again later. I think this book is excellent as a reference.
I did not read through it like a novel, trying to learn directly from the book because that's what the lecture material is for. Anytime I needed to refer to something or needed extra clarification, the book provided the information I needed to feel comfortable with the material. One thing that was a complaint among my classmates was how the book was difficult to understand.
I have a chemistry degree and I've taken biochemistry so I found a lot of the concepts in the book pretty straight forward, but for someone without that background, I can see where there would be difficulty. I purchased this text for my hematology course in college. This book can be very difficult to read if you are not familiar with different medical abbreviations.
I find myself having to reread the chapters a few times to understand the material. This text would be great if it were used with another text for further clarification. A great thing about this text are the reference ranges in the front and back of the book, they are very helpful and nicely placed.
The chapters all have a case study based on the material in each chapter as well as a quiz and answers in the back. Good text for studying Hematology. This book is decent, really goes in depth to explain things, but to me it's wordy at times.
Text font is extremely small also so it's hard to hone in on what you're reading. Not a very good text book. A lot of the passages seem to be out of a cohesive order. I didn't use this much for my studies as a result. This book was not well written. When explaining concepts, it jumps from one place to the other with no real sequential order. The book is often difficult to follow because of this lack of organization. I'm glad I'm only renting this book for a course and do not own this book.
I advise the same for you. Use it in school every day! It shows how to accurately identify cells, simplifies hemostasis and thrombosis concepts, and covers normal hematopoiesis through diseases of erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid, and megakaryocytic origins. This book also makes it easy to understand complementary testing areas such as flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular diagnostics.
Well-known authors Bernadette Rodak, George Fritsma, and Elaine Keohane cover everything from working in a hematology lab to the parts and functions of the cell to laboratory testing of blood cells and body fluid cells. It shows how to accurately identify cells, simplifies hemostasis and thrombosis concepts, and covers normal Elsevier Health Sciences Bolero Ozon. Clinical Principles and Applications.
