Platelets are crucial for hemostasis, yet excessive platelet activation is a major cause of morbidity. Understanding megakaryocyte biology is crucial for the development of platelet gene targeting and these two volumes bring together those techniques for the study of both the platelet and the megakaryocyte. Volume 1 covers functional assays including aggregometry, flow cytometry, as well as approaches used to study megakaryocyte function. Volume 2 includes signaling techniques, postgenomic methods and a number of key perspectives chapters that review our current understanding of platelet and megakaryocyte biology in addition to new developments in experimental strategies making these essential books for all researchers in this field.
