About the Book

This new edition of the comprehensive guide to transfusion medicine is now fully revised and updated. The Third Edition includes two new sections, one on alternatives to blood transfusion, and one on cellular and tissues therapy and organ transplantation. It focuses on clinical aspects but also covers background science and organizational issues. This timely volume highlights controversial issues and provides advice for everyday clinical questions in transfusion medicine. Practical Transfusion Medicine, Third Edition, is an essential manual for all those working in modern transfusion medicine.

Review :
"This book should be a standard reference volume in every blood bank and department of hematology in virtually every hospital.
