: Este libro es una revisión concisa a todo color de los mecanismos de las enfermedades y trastornos sanguíneos, basado en un curso de hematología de la Escuela de Medicina de Harvard. Hematological Pathophysiology es una introducción bien ilustrada y fácil de asimilar a los principios fisiológicos que subyacen a la regulación y función de las células sanguíneas y la hemostasia, así como a los mecanismos fisiopatológicos responsables del desarrollo de trastornos sanguíneos. Con un fuerte énfasis en los principios clave, el libro cubre el diagnóstico y el manejo principalmente dentro de un marco de patogénesis. Escrito por clínicos/educadores de renombre mundial en la Escuela de Medicina de Harvard, Hematological Pathophysiology presenta contenido y organización basados en un curso de hematología ofrecido a estudiantes de segundo año en esa escuela. El libro está lógicamente dividido en cuatro secciones: Anemias y trastornos de los glóbulos rojos, trastornos de la hemostasia y la trombosis, trastornos de los leucocitos y medicina transfusional; se abre con una importante descripción general de la sangre y los tejidos hematopoyéticos.

4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW!

"This is a superb book. Deceptively small, yet packs a wallop. The emphasis on principles instead of practice is welcome....The text is clear, concise, and surprisingly approachable for what could have been a very dense and dry discussion. I could not put this book down and read it entirely in one sitting. When was the last time anyone found a hematology textbook so riveting?"--Doody's Review Service

Hematological Pathophysiology is a well-illustrated, easy-to-absorb introduction to the physiological principles underlying the regulation and function of blood cells and hemostasis, as well as the pathophysiologic mechanisms responsible for the development of blood disorders. Featuring a strong emphasis on key principles, the book covers diagnosis and management primarily within a framework of pathogenesis.

Authored by world-renowned clinician/educators at Harvard Medical School, Hematological Pathophysiology features content and organization based on a hematology course offered to second year students at that school. The book is logically divided into four sections: Anemias and Disorders of the Red Blood Cell, Disorders of Hemostasis and Thrombosis, Disorders of Leukocytes, and Transfusion Medicine; it opens with an important overview of blood and hematopoietic tissues.
