Postgraduate Haematology, 7th Edition, is a textbook published by Wiley-Blackwell for residents and postgraduate trainees in haematology. The volume provides detailed scientific background and clinical guidance intended to support medical practice and specialty examination preparation.
The text examines disease pathogenesis, clinical findings, laboratory evaluation, and patient management across a wide range of non-malignant and malignant blood and bone marrow disorders. Broad subject areas include cellular haemopoiesis, red blood cell abnormalities, haematological neoplasms, transfusion medicine, and haemostatic mechanisms.
With contributions from international authors across more than 51 chapters, the volume reviews conditions spanning benign and malignant haematology. Integrated treatment algorithms are included throughout the work to assist clinicians with therapeutic decision-making.
