Format:Paperback
An invaluable text written by somenone obviously very in touch with the practice of hospital transfusion science. Although aimed at undergraduates, I found it essential for building basic knowledge as a trainee BMS. A rare, well written, exceptionally understandable book which I'm sure will be of great use throughout my career in biomedical sciences.
Format:Paperback
The contexts of this book is very informative and exactly what I need for my Haematology & Transfusion module of my BMS degree. However I am very disappointed as to why in most of the pictures and graphs with a certain font are all the words merged together, making it unreadable. I would like to know whether this is the same for all of the books, otherwise Im taking it back.
Format:Paperback
A comprehensive guide to transfusion science, with all the essential information on all clinically significant antibodies.
Well written and easy to read, with summary boxes and revision questions, great for the trainee or qualified staff for revision or CPD.
