Customer Reviews

Excellent introduction to blood

I read the 3rd edition of Dailey's Notes on Blood. The book purports to "offer the layperson and professional a simple way to learn or review the basics of blood physiology, immunology, and related topics." It has done so exceedingly well and the reader is likely to feel that he has gained useful knowledge almost effortlessly. If you are interested to know more about the basics of blood and its components, whether for personal or professional reasons, you are unlikely to find a book that will surpass Dailey's.

CONCISE, COMPREHENSIVE, COMPREHENDIBLE

If you are a layperson with no medical background this book will make the complexities of blood easy for you to understand. A nice feature is the marginal references which makes it easy to find terms used in the chapter under consideration. Students will appreciate the quizzes (with answers) at the end of each chapter that are a help to remembering what was learned. You may not be a hematologist after reading this book, but you will be able to communicate with them. This book is concise, easy to follow, and thorough.
