OREWORD
Technological advances have quickly propelled hematology forward; for
example: microarray expression analyses; single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)
chips (platforms to look at genomic changes); sophisticated fluorescent in situ
hybridization; newly identified cell surface antigens associated with various dis-
eases and cell types; understanding of transcription factors (engines of prolifera-
tion and differentiation of hematopoietic cells); and more complete knowledge of
chromosomal changes, mutations and amplifications associated with various
hematological malignancies. These advances have been the engines for better
diagnosis and classification of hematopoietic disorders. Furthermore, a variety of
new therapeutic approaches have come to the forefront, such as targeted therapies
(thyrosine kinase inhibitors) for myeloproliferative disorders; lenalidomide for
myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and multiple myeloma; demethylating agents
for MDS and myeloid leukemia, as well as, humanized monoclonal antibodies for
lymphomas. Many of these advancements have occurred since the first edition of
Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management by Dr. Rienhold Munker
and colleagues was published 6 years ago.
This new edition, edited by Drs. Reinhold Munker, Erhard Hiller, Jonathan
Glass, and Ronald Paquette, provides in clear terms an understanding of the
cellular physiology, immunology, and molecular biology of hematopoietic dis-
orders. It gives new diagnostic methodologies and guides the health care worker
to practical approaches to the diagnoses and management of these blood disor-
ders. The book covers all of the major hematopoietic diseases and a number of
the rare diseases as they interface with new scientific knowledge. It has excellent
“how to” tables providing dosage and time schedules of different chemothera-
peutic agents, as well as clearly defined tables to aid in diagnosis and prognosis.
Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management, Second Edition is a
fine montage of applied research and practical approaches to diagnosis and
management of our patients. The book is ideal for the house officers, fellows in
training, interested scientists, as well as the practicing hematologist.

REFACE
In the 6 years since the publication of Modern Hematology: Biology and
Clinical Management, major advances in the understanding, diagnosis, and treat-
ment of blood disorders have again been made. Molecular studies are now used
on a daily basis to diagnose a variety of hematological disorders and to guide
their treatment. Targeted therapies, such as kinase inhibitors in myeloprolifera-
tive disorders and humanized monoclonal antibodies for lymphomas, have trans-
formed the treatment approach to these diseases. Peripheral blood and even
umbilical cord blood are now routinely used as sources of stem cells for trans-
plantation. The growing use of nonmyeloablative transplantation emphasizes
immunotherapy over cytotoxic chemotherapy. These advances motivated us to
updateModern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management with the latest
clinical and scientific developments in hematology. We welcome the contribu-
tions of new authors. The growing use of databases prompted us to add an
overview of printed and electronic resources for hematologists.
Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management, Second Edition
brings together facts, concepts, and protocols important for the practice of hema-
tology. In 23 concise chapters, all major blood diseases are covered; rarer dis-
eases are discussed if they are of scientific interest. The first two chapters
introduce the reader to the scientific basis of blood disorders. As in the previous
edition, each chapter is illustrated by tables, figures, and a selection of color
plates. Our text is ideal for residents or fellows in training. However, students,
physicians in other specialties, and even pure scientists may take advantage of
our book both as a reference and a study guide. We hope that ultimately, all
patients with benign and malignant blood disorders will benefit from the publi-
cation of Modern Hematology: Biology and Clinical Management, Second
Edition.
