"The second edition of BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Haematology and Transfusion Medicine is easy to read; chapters are a good length, and there are numerous illustrations that are a nice addition. . . However, this is an extremely complete and updated reference that will be especially useful to veterinarians with a special interest in haematology." ( Journal of The American Veterinary Medical Association , 16 September 2012)

"Chapters pack in color photos, there are no chapters on inflammation and anaemia and other advancements in the field, and the powerful survey will provide an outstanding and in-depth discussion suitable for any veterinary student or practicing clinic." ( Midwest Book Review , 1 February 2013)
