George Eliot's 'The Complete Works' offers a comprehensive glimpse into the intricate moral and social fabric of 19th-century England through her nuanced characterizations and intricate plot construction. With an engaging narrative style that blends realism and philosophical inquiry, Eliot tackles complex themes such as love, faith, and personal responsibility, often delving into the inner lives of her characters. This collection encapsulates her vision of a compassionate society, revealing the often tumultuous human experiences that shape individual destinies against the backdrop of evolving social mores. Born Mary Ann Evans, George Eliot was a pioneer of the realistic novel, drawing inspiration from her own life experiences and intellectual pursuits. Her struggles against societal conventions, particularly in matters of gender and sexuality, inform her characters' often turbulent journeys. Eliot's education and exposure to a wide range of philosophical ideas, especially those of German idealism, also lend depth to her narratives, enriching readers' understanding of both her literary and social critiques. Readers seeking a profound exploration of human nature and societal dynamics will find 'The Complete Works' an essential addition to their literary library. Eliot's masterful storytelling and empathetic insights invite readers to reflect on their own moral and social journeys, making her collected works timeless and universally relevant.

With the 13th edition, Wintrobe’s Clinical Hematology once again bridges the gap between the clinical practice of hematology and the basic foundations of science. Broken down into eight parts, this book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of: Laboratory Hematology, The Normal Hematologic System, Transfusion Medicine, Disorders of Red Cells, Hemostasis and Coagulation; Benign Disorders of Leukocytes, The Spleen and/or Immunoglobulins; Hematologic Malignancies, and Transplantation. Within these sections, there is a heavy focus on the morphological exam of the peripheral blood smear, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and other tissues. With the knowledge about gene therapy and immunotherapy expanding, new, up-to-date information about the process and application of these therapies is included. Likewise, the editors have completely revised material on stem cell transplantation in regards to both malignant and benign disorders, graft versus host disease, and the importance of long-term follow-up of transplantation survivors.
