This major revision of a standard haematology textbook for medical students outlines the fundamental principles of clinical and laboratory haematology, linking blood disease manifestations to new insights into disease processes. It highlights how advancements in molecular biology, immunology, biochemistry, and physiology have enhanced our understanding of normal blood formation and its disruptions in various diseases. The influence of molecular biology is particularly notable in inherited conditions like thalassaemia and haemophilia, as well as in discussions on growth factors and leukaemogenesis. The book also covers an expanding range of treatment options, including dedicated chapters on bone marrow transplantation and managing bone marrow failure. Clarity is enhanced through the use of color in line diagrams, and all blood and bone marrow appearances are illustrated with color photographs. This resource is ideal for medical students preparing for final exams, post-graduates studying general medicine and haematology, and professionals such as nurses involved in caring for patients with blood disorders. The revision includes full-color illustrations, updated clinical relevance, and contributions from a new co-author, alongside a refreshed design and artwork throughout.

All of us need a break now and then, whether it's from the stress of everyday life or the boredom that comes with routine. You'll find it in Liquid Vacation, a colorful, sometimes wild walk through the tiki culture in Las Vegas, from the early days of the Stardust Hotel to the present as it's embodied by Frankie's Tiki Room, just minutes from the famous Strip. Liquid Vacation author P Moss, a dedicated student of the tiki culture, walks readers through the swaying palms, whispering bamboo and rustling grass skirts of the tiki world from Aku Aku and Don The Beachcomber to Frankie's, the world's only 24/7 tiki bar, and especially the drinks that make tiki tiki. Liquid Vacation is written by P Moss with original tiki drink recipes by: Chris Andrasfay, co-founder of Frankie's Tiki Room, and bartenders Allison Hartling and Mike Richardson.
