The Washington Manual(r) Hematology and Oncology Subspecialty Consult

Just got this book- I thought it was a very nice overview of hematology and oncology. It was one of the few that I could find that had "just enough" detail without going overboard with minutiae. A great book for a student or resident on service.

This is a subspecialty consult book on hem/onc that I just received. It seems to have all of the basics for the primary physician, med student, rotating resident and even the basics for the fellows. You never know it might even have some of the minutiae that some attendings might forget. I think it was created for the rotating resident or med student and for this it really serves its purpose. Easy and concise. Although I have not read it completely, it does seem a tad sparse in some sections such as dosing chemo (not that the med student/resident would dose chemo), but these protocols are constantly changing anyway...but an idea of dose range might have been a bit helpful some readers. Overall it is an excellent review of hem/onc.
