• Chapter on normal newborn peripheral blood morphology covers the normal cells found in neonatal blood.
• Chapter on body fluids illustrates the other fluids found in the body besides blood, using images from cytocentrifuged specimens.
• The most common cytochemical stains, along with a summary chart for interpretation, are featured in the leukemia chapters to assist in the classification of both malignant and benign leukoproliferative disorders.
• Chapter featuring morphologic changes after myeloid hematopoietic growth factors is included in the text.
• Morphologic abnormalities coverage in the chapters on erythrocytes and leukocytes, along descriptions of each cell, presents this information in a schematic fashion.
• Appendix with comparison tables of commonly confused cells includes lymphocytes versus neutrophilic myelocytes and monocytes versus reactive lymphoctyes to help students see the subtle differences between them.
• Glossary of hematologic terms at the end of the book provides a quick reference to easily look up definitions.
