Williams Hematology, Eighth (July 2010) Edition
The landmark hematology reference — now in full colorEdition after edition, Williams Hematology has guided generations of
clinicians, biomedical researchers, and trainees in many disciplines
through the origins, pathophysiological mechanisms, and management of
benign and malignant disorders of blood cells and coagulation proteins.
The book begins with the evaluation of the patient and progresses to the
molecular and cellular underpinnings of normal and pathological
hematology. Subsequent sections present disorders of the erythrocyte,
granulocytes and monocytes, lymphocytes and plasma cells, malignant
myeloid and lymphoid diseases, hemostasis and thrombosis, and
transfusion medicine.
Featuring a brand-new full-color presentation, the Eighth Edition of
Williams Hematology is extensively revised to reflect the latest views
of experts in the field. Two new chapters examine the importance of
genomics in hematology and cell therapy for tissue replacement, whereas
other chapters have been revised to incorporate the newest clinical
approaches to the leukemias and lymphomas, and the application of
targeted therapy in the treatment of hematologic disorders.
New to this Edition:* Full-color presentation conveniently integrates images of blood and tissue findings where they are cited in the text
* Two additional chapters, “Epigenetics and Genomics,” and
“Principles of Multipotential Cell Therapy for Tissue Replacement,”
offer insights into the application of genomic and monoclonal therapies
to hematology and emphasize their role in improving diagnostic and
therapeutic methods
* Expanded coverage of non-Hodgkin lymphoma includes separate
chapters on its constituent diseases, providing an in-depth assessment
of the diagnosis and management of these disorders
* A comprehensive discussion of erythrocytosis and thrombocytosis
reviews reactive and malignant forms of myeloproliferation, encompassing
new genetic advances in these disorders along with more targeted
therapeutic approaches
