Originally written in the Italian language by two world leaders in the field, the book has been expertly translated by the renowned haematologist and teacher, Barbara Bain. Despite the enormous advances made in immunophenotyping, and in cytogenetic and molecular aspects of haematology, morphology of the blood and marrow remains fundamental to haematological diagnosis. This book explores the major topics of haematological pathology, blending classical teaching with up–to–date WHO classification and terminology. Images are derived from material obtained for diagnostic purposes from patients suffering from serious haematological conditions. Morphological details are supplemented by detailed descriptions of the output and role of automated instruments in disorders of the blood, supported by more than 50 images of the output of automated instruments. Morphology of Blood Disorders, 2nd edition is an essential reference source for diagnosis in the haematology laboratory.   Titles of related interest Bone Marrow Pathology, 4th Edition Bain, ISBN 9781405168250   Interactive Haematology Imagebank, 2nd Edition, DVD Bain, ISBN 9780470670491  Blood Cells, 5th Edition Bain, ISBN 9781118817339 www.wiley.com/go/haematology
