5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading for your studies in haematology, 27 Jun 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Essential Haematology (Essentials) (Paperback)
This book is a comprehensive text covering all aspects of haematology for both under- and postgraduate students. Covering all the major topics including genetics, classification, clinical aspect and staging and treatment, it can be used at all stages of your undergraduate training. Easy to read and highly informative it is divided up into manageable chapters with haematological malignancies also covered. It uses numerous photographs to illustrate clinical features and references at the end of each chapter provide an excellent basis for further reading. Overall an essential text for both students and doctors to have on their shelves!

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of detail but a useful reference!, 22 Dec 2006
By RjP (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essential Haematology (Essentials) (Paperback)
Haematology is an under-taught area of the undergraduate medical curriculum not clearly sitting in any of the general fields which as medical students we are exposed to.

This book is really well illustrated with some very insightful microscopy slides with good text to back it up and explain the material. This is in some contrast to the competition out there.

On the negative side however, there is more detail than the undergraduate needs, but this is admitted in the preface and blue lines indicate the 'extension material' which is necessary for 'honours students'!

I've always had problems with understanding haematological malignancies and this book has proven very helpful in this regard. It's a useful reference which can go a long way to addressing the gap between what is taught and what is expected! Whether you're a medical student or junior doctor this is a great book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Basic Reading, 19 Jun 2004
By DocBhoy (Invercargill , New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Essential Haematology (Essentials) (Paperback)
Currently working in Haematology , I felt that this text sat out of place with me - it was too bulky to have sitting around in a pocket or Junior Doctors office desk , and also more basic than the excellent Oxford Handbook - but it was made redundant at home by the availability of Postgraduate Haematology and the invaluable source of information available on the internet . It is comprehensive enough for medical students , but I felt that further depth would be useful - having heard some questions that students have asked .
In terms of layout and presentation , though , it is very pleasing on the eye , and deserves to not be underestimated as a starter text .
