Book reviews 99 grafts.There is a section on experimental work on the treatment of aplastic anaemia by ALG and a section on clinical bone marrow transplantation.This covers histocompatibility testing and the H-Y immunity phenomenon.The clinical results of marrow grafting for aplasia, leukaemia, and immune deficiency are reported from Seattle, UCLA, and Paris, but they are already out of date.The final section of the book is a mixed bag called 'Advances in Experimental Haematology' covering a variety of topics including preservation of dog granulocytes and diffusion chamber cul- tures.All in all this is a specialised book providing suitable reading for the growing number of experimental haematologists concerned with investigating new approaches to understanding and treating leukaemia, aplastic anaemia, and immune deficiencies.It is a good memento of the conference but, like all proceedings, its useful life must be measured in months not years.It is not for the uninitiated who would do better to wait for a definitive review on the last decade of experimental haematological research.
