A brand-new edition of the bestselling guide to hematologic malignancies. An international team of contributors come together to present all clinically relevant aspects of leukemias, lymphomas, and myelomas. Using clear terminology, the book discusses salient features, diagnostic procedures, prognosis, and treatments for these cancers. "well written in a clear language and with obvious sympathy for our patients; [...] is very well informed and admirably up to date in providing information about basic and applied research as well as new trials in hematology; finally, it has a useful glossary and deatailed info and (working!) www address for support societies in a number of countries. In short, a thoroughly researched contribution to the bookshelf." Peter Hokland, Euorpean Journal of Haematology, August 2006, Vol 77. Iss 2.
