 | Linne & Ringsrud's Clinical Laboratory Science Now in full colour, this market-leading text has been updated and streamlined! New to this edition, author Mary Louise Turgeon maintains the book's clear, simple writing style, but condenses the material to include only the most relevant information. The text provides both a fundamental overview of the field of clinical laboratory science and a discipline-by-discipline approach to each of the clinical lab science areas. It stresses laboratory skills and techniques throughout - providing the general background knowledge necessary for working in a clinical laboratory and performing routine clinical laboratory tests.
