Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

This book is recommended as a concise introduction to coagulation disorders. The Haem Trainee suggested it might become the Oxford Handbook equivalent for coagulation, highlighting its utility. However, Doody's noted that while useful for beginners, the treatment of disorders may be too superficial for experienced practitioners seeking in-depth analysis.
