The new WHO heme is now available for order. The WHO site says the expected delivery date is Sept 20.

Despite costing $122, I think it will be a book well worth the money. The new edition will have many new changes, and is quite a big upgrade from the old one, based on looking at some of the proposed changes listed on the Society for Hemepath webpage.

I have pre-ordered, but the service form the Albany, NY distributor is so shoddy, who knows if I'll ever get the book!

I ordered it through Amazon. They had a estimated date of this week, but today bumped it back to "not sure." Luckily they don't charge you until it actually ships.

Does anyone know of any discounts on this book? I just noticed that residents / fellows can get 25% off the AFIP books.

Find an FMG. A lot of them will be from countries that qualify for reduced pricing.

They used to offer discounts for USCAP members, but I think the last time I ordered they had killed that program.

It might not hurt to ask though.

on a similar topic, is there any information out there about when new editions to some of the other WHO books will be produced? i'd like to get some of the other systems, but a bunch are from 2003-2005, making me think an update will be coming soon. if anyone knows if a proposed update schedule is out there, can you please let us know?

A fair number of them are available for free in pdf format organized by chapter, but not the Neuro, Heme, or Breast ones.

You can also search and read the WHO books through Google Books. I think most of the WHO books are available.

I ordered it from Amazon and they still do not have an expected delivery date yet.

My attending received his book from the WHO a few days ago. However, he is one of the authors. I looked at it for a few minutes. Many new entities compared with the older edition, especially regarding different large cell lymphomas. My guess is that other people should start getting theirs soon as well.

 

[Sean2tall]

Anybody get it yet? I am thinking about getting the Neuro book also and Amazon does not have that one. Maybe I will switch my order to them directly.
