From the Back Cover
Most errors in the diagnosis of haemoglobinopathies are due to a failure in collecting correct laboratory data, or because of incorrect interpretation of the test results. Haemoglobinopathies are common, and correct diagnosis is vital for effective patient management. This is a difficult field, and it can take many years to develop diagnostic skills. Those with less experience are often bewildered and don't know where to turn for sound, easily understood advice.
