From the reviews:
“This multiauthored monograph on anemia in older persons discusses the nature of aging and red cell levels in the body as well as the various causes of anemia in older persons. Its purpose is to review the nature of anemia in older persons. The book succeeds admirably. The audience is hematologists and physicians treating older persons and researchers of blood physiology. … Because anemia is common in older persons, this book is important and timely. It points the way to the future studies.” (David O. Staats, Doody’s Review Service, May, 2008)
“Anemia in the Elderly offers a thoughtful overview of a common yet underdiagnosed medical condition … . this book carries tremendous clinical relevance for its intended audience—physicians and other clinicians who care for older adults. … The major contribution of this text is the elegant integration of geriatrics throughout. By offering a thoughtful approach to anemia that takes functional status into account, this book is an important addition to the fields of geriatrics and hematology.” (Preeti N. Malani, JAMA, Vol. 299 (19), 2008)
