Better than the speakers
2 Sep 2008
Format:Paperback
The book covers all the fundamentals, and while not as in depth as the Victor Marder tome,...it does help in teaching medical students and residents. Some of the chapters were written by faculty members of the University of Vermont. To tell the truth, the printed word is much more understandable than hearing the speakers in person. In all, a good book for learning the basics.
A readable review of coagulation for Boards exams
24 July 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was recommended this book as a concise review of coagulation for my pediatric hematology/oncology specialty boards re-certification exam. The book does not disappoint. It provides the essential information that is useful for study. It provides it in a very readable manner for those who are not coagulopathy mavens. Highly recommended.
