Hematology: Basic Principles and Practice, 7th Edition, is a comprehensive textbook that presents scientific foundations alongside clinical guidance. The volume is structured to support diagnostic and therapeutic problem-solving across the breadth of modern hematology.

Core subject areas span basic cellular and molecular biology, non-malignant blood conditions, and malignant disorders. The text examines gene expression, the mechanisms of normal hematopoiesis, red blood cell disorders, and clinical management strategies for acute leukemias and lymphomas across pediatric and adult populations.

Drawing on contributions from international subspecialists, the work incorporates digital tools to support pathology study, including a Virtual Microscope that allows high-magnification viewing of hematopathology slides.
