Review
"...It really is the best of the best, in terms of textbook design. Although it hasn′t made me want to be a haematologist, it has helped me understand what they do...It really is great, if you don′t believe me, pick it up and look yourself" Black Bag – Bristol Medical School Gazette/2000

"Haematology at a Glance is a valuable book for primary learning as well as for revision, and I am sure that I will refer to it for years to come. My grandfather, a retired GP, was also impressed by it, and wishes he had it when he was at medical school. Having this book to hand makes me feel less daunted at the prospect of my upcoming pathology finals. The multiple choice questions and case studies with feedback will be a good starting point for my revision. Preparing for finals is a stressful time for students, and books such as this are greatly appreciated." The Royal College of Pathologists Bulletin
