Great reference text by LDG in Montgomery (Montgomery, AL United States)  5 Stars
January 13, 2007
This text is well worth the money. I have used it repeatedly for general transfusion med questions in the hospital and in dealings with the transfusion med committee. Although I have both, this book gets used much more than Mollison's text....the writing is clearer, and answers are simply easier to find.
