Blood Disorders in the Elderly Hardback - Tapa dura

'This is a brilliant contribution to the field. The excellent organisation of the book is matched by superb editing that provides an even tone of voice often lacking in multi-authored books. ... This book will be the lodestone that directs future research in the haematology of old age.' David O. Staats, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center

'Haematologic disorders, covering from mild to severe diseases are part of everyday practice in geriatric wards. For this reason this book could be welcome on the shelves of geriatricians dealing with internal medicine. ... The subject of this book, if covered in detail, could fill an encyclopaedia. The authors managed to treat the...topics in a comprehensive manner, limiting thereby the volume of this treatise. The texts are written in an easily understandable style... The chapter headings...show clearly that the chosen topic is well covered, For these reasons this book is highly recommended for geriatric clinical practitioners.' Gerontology 2008
