As stated in the preface, the authors intended this book tobe used by laboratory workers and students, and they have tried,clearly, concisely and in harmonious style, to explain "how"and "why" for most current tests performed in average generalhospital laboratories.

The book is attractively printed in offset style, with two columnsof text on a page. There are 688 pages of text, 46 pages ofindex and 333 black and white illustrations, many of which arephotographs.

It is customary for reviewers to praise a good book, takingexception, however, to certain errors or omissions, often intheir own field of special interest. This gives evidence thatthe book has been critically read and tends to make for a balancedreview. At the risk of appearing undercritical, this reviewerfinds this book to be concise, lucid, current, sound, remarkablyfree from error, and pleasant to read.
