Reviews

"This 2nd edition, a revision of Hematopathology, has a multidisciplinary approach, in that it goes beyond illustrating standard histology and cytopathology to demonstrating other complementary diagnostic tests, e.g., DNA/molecular studies and immunophenotyping. In addition, it is comprehensive as it treats both neoplastic and non-neoplastic pathology in tissues and organs." --Reference and Research Book News, August 2013

"This would be useful to those looking for a book that concisely covers both non-neoplastic and neoplastic hematopathology. It also would be useful to visual learners who appreciate numerous photos, charts, and diagrams." --Doody.com, June 13, 2013
