Good primary text- Bad board prep text

It's treatment of clotting, red blood, and lab tests was very, very thorough. And its treatment of white blood was inadequete to walk away with a good grasp of immunology. The diagrams occasionally made topics even more difficult to understand -probably not what they were intended to do.All in all its a good primary text for a haemeatology unit, but you will definately need a histo atlas to go with it. This book wont work for board review.- Just too much detail to sieve through to get the essentials.
