Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"This is a highly specialized book dealing with myeloma bone disease. ... The book, authoritative as it is, is likely to be of interest to ... physicians and scientists with a specific interest in myeloma. ... No other book has dealt with the subject of myeloma bone disease in as much depth and, therefore, this one is unique." (Seema Singhal, Doody's Review Service, February, 2011)
