註釋The classic textbook of pediatric hematology and oncology is now available in a New Edition. JAMA's review of the last edition called it "The ultimate reference work for the field" and said "All hematologists need to buy and use it...Far too valuable to leave on the bookshelf". David G.Nathan, MD is joined by new editor Stuart H Orkin, MD and nearly 90 expert contributors to revise and update this 2-volume resource. The book provides readers with an up-to-date review of the fundamental pathophysiology underlying pediatric hematologic and oncologic problems, followed by complete clinical descriptions and therapeutic guidelines.
