The editors have recognized the increasing importance of transplantation to hematologists; the section on Stem Cell Transplantation in this volume has been expanded in size, almost threefold since the second edition. As many as 14 chapters in this edition are devoted to stem cell transplantation. This emphasis reflects the growth and importance of this area to the discipline of hematology.


Product Description

The fourth edition of this leading text reflects the new direction and growth of the field of hematology as an academic and clinical discipline. Edited and written by practitioners who are the leaders of the field, the book covers both the basic scientific foundations of hematology and its clinical aspects. It provides practitioners with the most comprehensive, authoritative, up-to-date information in hematology. The table of contents has been thoroughly revised with many new chapters added, reflecting the rapidly changing nature of the molecular and cellular areas of the specialty. This definitive resource is the one comprehensive book needed by every practicing hematologist.

Notter's Essentials of Nursing Research, Sixth Edition

Jacqueline Hott, Wendy Budin, "Notter's Essentials of Nursing Research, Sixth Edition"

Springer Publishing Company | 1999-04-15 | ISBN: 0826115993 | 212 pages | PDF | 3.7 MB

The new edition of this classic text provides a contemporary explanation of the basic knowledge and skills, which form the foundation of nursing research for clinical practice. The authors, Hott and Budin, expand the original range of topics to encompass the full body of research techniques today--twenty-five years since" Notter's book" systematically identified the field of nursing research. New features include a comprehensive list of websites for nursing research activities; a glossary of research terms; useful references for obtaining funds for research; and references on presenting and publishing research including how to write a research abstract. This essential book serves as an excellent text for students in their first professional degree program, and for beginning graduate students in nursing.

Biomolecular Action of Ionizing Radiation

Shirley Lehnert “Biomolecular Action of Ionizing Radiation"
Taylor & Francis | 2007-10-24 | ISBN: 0750308249 | 560 pages | PDF | 11.8 MB

Embracing the transformation of radiation sciences by the recent surge of developments in molecular biology, this progressive text offers an up-to-date analysis of in vitro and in vivo molecular responses in the body induced by ionizing radiation. With a unique emphasis on medical physics applications, Biomolecular Action of Ionizing Radiation also presents a much needed, in-depth perspective on clinical applications for the treatment of cancer and radiation injuries.

Based on a popular course given by the author at McGill University,the bookplaces the traditional tenets of radiation biology in the context of contemporary cell and molecular biology. Using terms that non-experts in molecular biology can understand, it clarifies the underlying mechanisms of radiation effects on molecular interactions including signal transduction pathways, modes of cell killing, and non-targeted effects. The author subsequently associates key principles and advances with potential applications, including the use of ionizing radiation as a cytotoxic and cytostatic agent, and radiosensitization by targeting molecular intermediates or signaling molecules involved in radiation-induced processes.
Raising the standard for radiation biology texts that are currently available, Biomolecular Action of Ionizing Radiation is an outstanding resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in medical physics, radiation oncology, radiation biology, and those who have an interest in the radiation sciences and in cancer treatment.
