- Title
ABC of clinical haematology.
- Authors
Bain, Barbara J.
- Abstract
The book "ABC of clinical haematology" provides a comprehensive overview of haematological disorders, including both clinical features and laboratory aspects. It is aimed at medical students, nurses, general practitioners, and other healthcare practitioners involved in the care of adults and children with haematological diseases. The book is written by 24 authors, primarily from England, with contributions from Canada and Israel. It is a valuable resource for trainee haematologists, biomedical scientists, and specialists in other disciplines seeking to update their knowledge of recent advances in haematology. The language is clear, the figures are informative, and the level of content is appropriate for the target audience. While there are some minor errors, overall, the book is considered useful and readable. Suggestions for improvement include the addition of a chapter on blood transfusion, a list of abbreviations, and more detailed coverage of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. The inclusion of paediatric haematology and a chapter on haematological emergencies is particularly valuable.
