About this book
In Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management, Reinhold Munker and his distinguished colleagues offer a concise up-to-date summary of the fundamentals of clinical hematology, including all the most recent developments. Their comprehensive survey presents the essential clinical facts concerning malignant and nonmalignant blood diseases, detailing diagnostic methods, angiostatic drugs, the very latest therapies (e.g., stem cell transplantation), classifications, scientific controversies, and clear treatment recommendations. They also illuminate the scientific basis needed to understand the new diagnostic and treatment methodologies, the molecular pathogenesis of many hematologic disorders, and the new cellular therapies for these malignant disorders. All major blood diseases are covered, as well as the rarer disorders of special scientific interest. Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management strikes an authoritative balance between clinical acumen and fundamental understanding. By concisely combining cutting-edge explanations of disease pathophysiology with practical approaches to the diagnosis and management of hematologic disorders, it provides an invaluable vade mecum for today's physicians and students needing to keep up with the latest clinical and scientific developments.
Reviews
"This new text combines up-to-date explanations of disease pathophysiology with practical approaches to the diagnosis and management of hematologic disorders. This book will be useful for those who want to practice state-of-the-art hematology and for those who anticipate an even more exciting future for this discipline."-From the Foreword by H. Phillip Koeffler, MD
". . .as a primer for medical students, house staff and generalists, it offers up to date diagnostic criteria and "state of the art" therapeutic regimens. This provides sufficient information for counseling patients and preparing them for definitive treatment by hematologists and oncologists. It is reasonably priced for this purpose. "-Leukemia Research
"This is an up-to-date compilation of key topics in hematology. The presentation is concise -- there are no wasted words. Controversial areas are touched upon without misinforming. References are easily noted. The color slides as well as the key diagrams are essential. . .This will be an excellent book for a quick refresher and for teaching students, residents/fellows, non-hematology physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals. "-Doody's Health Science Book Review Journal
"...its main appeal lies in its ease of access and readability with frequent reference to new methods of investigation and treatment. It should provide a framework to which further knowledge can adhere. "--British Journal of Haematology
"...the authors have clearly succeeded in their aim and provide a concise volume that will be especially useful for students, residents, fellows and practitioners who wish a ready reference source. They cover the spectrum of neoplastic and nonmalignant hematology with practical, up-to-date summaries of pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapy....The text is quite readable and benefits from their uniform writing style. Figures, tables and color plates are used to advantage in summarizing or illustrating key points. The authors are to be commended for providing this useful text." - Bloodline
