Tietz Fundamentals of Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Diagnostics Reviews


  • Samzão

    It will work, but I don’t like that it says right on the cover that it was illegal for to sell it to me. I also don’t like the paper quality and that everything is black and white. I guess it’s on me to read the fine print but I just wanted a normal legit copy

  • Lucky dog

    Saves money on buying paperback than hardcover. Everything's the same

  • George Apostolopoulos

    This is a classic book written by leading authorities in their respective fields on clinical biochemistry

  • James Rose

    Good book, I like the comprehensive way he treats the subject.

  • Michael Nappi

    The standard in reference for the clinical chemist.

  • abhinaya

    It did have some printing errors apart from that it was a great read. Had everything ( clinical and analytical) aspects in great detail presented in a lucid manner.
