Summary
  • Advances in clinical bone marrow transplantation during the last two decades have promoted its worldwide acceptance as a treatment modality for a number of life-threatening diseases of the hematopoietic system. Focusing on basic principles, clinical issues and future developments, this handbook provides a concise yet comprehensive introduction to the rapidly developing field of allogeneic and autologous bone marrow or peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation.
  • The first English edition of this useful handbook was very popular. The second revised edition, too, will prove to be a valuable aid not only for clinicians working in this field, but also for scientists and physicians not immediately involved in the treatment of transplant patients.
