Easy to read."Very easy to follow. Made it easy to understand difficult topics!"--Amazon Reviewer
I highly recommend this book."... straight forward and I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a solid understanding of the most important concepts behind the tests performed in a modern hematology laboratory. Some textbooks today make it difficult for hematology students and lab professionals alike to figure out what it is that they "really need to know" to be effective and competent in the lab. Hematology in Practice addresses exactly this problem. In addition, this book will give a student an understanding that is more than good enough to pass general and categorical licensing exams."--Michael B., Amazon Reviewer
