[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","\"The revised 7th edition of Blood Cells has both the practicing haematologist and the trainee in mind. It aims to provide a guide for use in the diagnostic haematology laboratory, covering methods of collection of blood specimens, blood film preparation and staining, the principles of manual and automated blood counts and the assessment of the morphological features of blood cells. The practising haematologist should find this book sufficiently comprehensive to be a reference source while, at the same time, the trainee haematologist and biomedical scientist should find it a straightforward and practical bench manual. An innovation in this edition is the inclusion of some clinical images to illustrate the clinical context in which the blood film and blood count are interpreted. This will distinguish this book from others dealing with the blood count and film. The book will incorporate the WHO and International Consensus classifications of haematological neoplasms\"-- Provided by publisher."]
