Rezensionen

"The 6th edition of Schalm's Veterinary Hematology is acomprehensive textbook that primarily targets veterinary clinicalpathologists, pathology residents, and staff within veterinarydiagnostic laboratories. It is also a valuable reference forinternists, specialists in laboratory animal and wildlife medicine,and graduate students, but is unlikely to be used as a standardtextbook for a clinical pathology course in veterinary schoolsbecause of its size and cost." (Veterinary Clinical Pathology,2011)

"In the sixth edition of the classic Schalm's VeterinaryHematology, the editors have achieved their stated goal ofmaking the extensive amount of information that is providedaccessible, cohesive, and readable. Numerous contributing authorshave lent their expertise to provide excellent in-depth coverage oftopics. Outlines at the beginning of each chapter and crossreferences among chapters are extremely useful to readers."(Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association,December 2010)"The sixth updated edition of Schalm's VeterinaryHematology is a 'must' for any vet's library. It's beenextensively revised and reorganized for better accessibility,grouping topics within disciplines and packing in over 550 imagesalong with new sections on lab techniques and toxicity. Expandedsections on species-specific hematology and new photos anddiscussions make this far more than a casual update, and a'must-have' bible of facts no vet or college-level referencecollection should be without!"
