As stated in the preface of the first edition (1994), “the purpose
of this textbook is to present the fundamental principles
of urine and body fluid analysis” and “to serve as a straightforward,
in-depth teaching and reference text”. As with previous
editions, the task of achieving a balance in depth and breadth
of content to meet all needs is challenging. I still believe that
to gain a true understanding of a subject requires more than
the mere memorization of facts. Therefore a guiding principle
in the format and writing of this book is to present basic and
comprehensive information in a manner that arouses interest,
enhances learning, and facilitates understanding and mastery
of the content. A foundation knowledge of each body fluid
in health is established before pathologic conditions are discussed.
This enables readers to build their skills in interpreting
and correlating test results with disease states.
The intended audience is practicing laboratory professionals—medical laboratory scientists, medical laboratory
technicians—as well as faculty of undergraduate and graduate
educational programs in medical laboratory science. In
the medical laboratory, this text is useful as a training guide
and reference. Note that other healthcare professionals, such
as physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and
nurses can also benefit. Although the content can be comprehensive
and detailed, educators can easily adapt it to the level
desired for their students.
