Review quotes

"...provide[s] the most important and up-to-date information in hematopathology, for learners at all levels of experience. The book will be useful to anyone learning or practicing hematopathology, including pathology residents, hematopathology fellows, and practicing pathologists who sign out these specimens.... [it] continues to be one of the favorite hematopathology textbooks among pathology trainees and practicing hematopathologists alike. The text is concise yet comprehensive, ideal as a quick reference during sign out. Summary text boxes are excellent and one of the best features of this book. The appendices that compare the two current classification systems are very helpful in navigating this hopefully transitional period in our subspeciality. I highly recommend this book to anyone dealing with hematopathology specimens." Review by Anamarija Perry, MD (University of Michigan Medical School), ©Doody's Review Service, 2025. Doody's Score: 95, 4 Stars!
