"The new edition of this practical reference on the principles of leukemia diagnosis and classification, now fully updated throughout and incorporates the recent 5th edition of the WHO classification. From the bestselling author, Barbara J. Bain, and the addition of Mike Leach for this 6th edition, this is a comprehensive, up-to-date volume that is extensively referenced, well-illustrated and authoritative. The book will build on the strengths of the previous editions and will serve both those who are relatively new to the field and more experienced practitioners who will be able to use it as a convenient reference source. Specifically, it explains the application of the latest (5th edition) WHO classification of leukaemias and the relationship of this classification to the newly developed International Consensus Classification. This book will be fully updated throughout and include recent developments and the growing importance of molecular genetics. Leukaemias are a very heterogeneous group of diseases, which differ from each other in aetiology, pathogenesis, prognosis and responsiveness to treatment. Accurate diagnosis and classification are vital for the identification of specific biological entities and underpin scientific advances in this field. The detailed characterization of haematological neoplasms is also essential for the optimal management of individual patients"--
