Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book represents an excellent and actual source of knowledge about leukemias and blood stem cell transplantation and should not be missing in any transplantation department worldwide. It can be recommended also for residents, fellows in training as well as for specialist looking for concentrated information in this field of interest.” (M.
