Book Description:

PLATELETS is the definitive current source of state-of-the-art knowledge about platelets and covers the entire field of platelet biology, pathophysiology, and clinical medicine. Recently there has been a rapid expansion of knowledge in both basic biology and the clinical approach to platelet-related diseases including thrombosis and hemorrhage. Novel platelet function tests, drugs, blood bank storage methods, and gene therapies have been incorporated into patient care or are in development. This book draws all this information into a single, comprehensive and authoritative resource.

First edition won Best Book in Medical Science Award from the Association of American Publishers

Contains fourteen new chapters on topics such as platelet genomics and proteomics, inhibition of platelet function by the endothelium, clinical tests of platelet function, real time in vivo imaging of platelets, and inherited thrombocytopenias

A comprehensive full color reference comprising over 70 chapters, 1400 pages, and 16,000 references

Review:
Best Book in Medical Science 2002

This publication won, not just the best publication in hemostasis, not just the best publication in hematology, but in all of medical science (Assoc American Publishers, 2002). A well deserved award.

The book contains contributions from nearly all the very best and respected researchers in platelet pathophysiology. It broadly covers every aspect of platelets: from the biology, ultrastructure, biochemistry and physiology of function through to the clinical role of new platelet function analyzers in the diagnosis and management of coronary syndromes. New and emerging antiplatelet agents and clinical trials are discussed in detail.

This book will be of great benefit to both the clinician and the researcher. A landmark publication in the field.
