Review

“…The 6th edition of the Tietz textbook hits the spot on many different fronts. Furthermore to the excellent Editors, Reviewers, Associate Editors, and Contributors to the textbook that makes the content tremendously valuable, the transformation from the 2012 book to the 2017 platform are what is really exciting. It is clearly obvious that the Editors and the Contributors have made an effort to deliver the content that is useful for education in the global context…” — Peter Kavsak, Department of Pathology and Molecular Medicine, McMaster University in Clinical Biochemistry, Volume 50, Issue12
