Summary: Close to perfect but no cigar
Comment: While this text is a valuable resource for students, veterinarians, and veterinary clinical pathologists, the wealth of information and quality is diminished by the numerous grammatical and typographical errors found throughout the text. Some errors can be overlooked; however, others can result in misinterpretation of laboratory findings by the novice. It would behoove the editors to spend more time on editing in future volumes.
Examples: p. 1231 Oct. vs. May RBC #, Hb, And Hct. values do not make sense.
p. 699, table 104.2 myelomonocytic leukemia, special stains, positive NSE with and without fluoride inhibition is incorrect
p. 955, The author states: "Interestingly, the diseases causing hemoglobinopathies and glucose-6-phopsphate dehydrogenase deficiencies common in human patients have not been documented in domestic animals." yet, on p.996, he lists a domestic animal! [Table 145.1 Defects: glucose-6-phopsphate dehydrogenase deficiency; Breed: Weimeraner]
p. 895 shopping fever?
Rating: 5
Summary: Best Veterinary Hematology book/reference
Comment: TheFifth Edition of Schalm's Veterinary Hematology is a valuable tool to anyveterinarian, regardless of which point they are in in their career. For the novice veterinary student, thein-depth chapters provide the necessary information to easily learn newconcepts. The color photographs,illustrations, figures and charts drivehome the salient points. The casestudies put the topics into a clinical setting allowing the student to applythe information learned in clinical setting. The figures and tables provide the practicing veterinarian enoughinformation to jar a rusty memory. Thein-depth chapters also provide the seasoned veterinary with the necessaryinformation to stay abreast of the latest trends. The variety of species-specific hematologic information isunmatched by any other book that I have used in my short career. The topics are organized in a coherent andlogical manner. The index is quiteextensive and makes locating the needed information quite easy. I wish a resource like this had been available 2.5 years ago when I started veterinary school. It would have saved me alot of time having to look in multiple texts to find information that could all be found in one place.
