Review

This amazing work is absolutely essential for anyone who signs out bone marrow biopsies. The third edition seems like an entirely new book. Essentially, every relevant piece of information in the field of bone marrow pathology is incorporated in this encyclopedic work. Introductory chapters provide an excellent overview of normal blood and bone marrow morphology and special techniques (cytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics, FISH and molecular studies), which is especially helpful for those beginning to learn bone marrow pathology and those looking for a quick review. Although detailed, the text is well structured following the same, easily readable format throughout the two volumes and 36 chapters. The multidisciplinary approach to the bone marrow biopsy is emphasized, and all the pertinent ancillary studies, such as flow cytometry histograms, karyograms, and FISH images, accompany the text. The illustrations are exquisite, and address both the common histologic appearances and important variations associated with each entity. --Anamarija Perry, MD -- Doody's Review Service ©
