First sentence: When a patient presents with anemia, it is important to establish whether the problem is due to a single cell line (e.g., red blood cells) or a multiple cell line (i.e., red cell, white cell, and platelets).
Description: "This revised manual is a concise, practical, up-to-date book for practitioners responsible for the care of children with hematologic and oncologic diseases. It is specifically designed for medical students, pediatric house staff, fellows in pediatric hematology-oncology seeking a systematic approach to these diseases and a guide in preparation for board examinations, and practicing hematologists and oncologists seeking another opinion and an approach to the diagnosis and management of these disorders. The Manual of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Third Edition, is replete with detailed tables, flow diagrams, and algorithms for investigation and clinical management of these diseases. It is currently the only book to combine hematology and oncology in one volume."--Jacket.
