Spanish language print edition of Basic QC Practices: Training in Statistical Quality Control for Medical Laboratories, 3rd Edition. 

For more than a decade, thousands of laboratory professionals have used Basic QC Practices as their standard reference for quality control.

"This extremely readable book delivers what it promises, and more… It is a refreshing blend of theory and practical advice that is useful for teaching, for review, and for everyday laboratory operations." Robert L. Murray, Clinical Chemistry

"It is an ideal reference for those who want to implement and operate valid QC procedures in central laboratories or point of care testing settings… I enjoyed working through the book and visiting the Internet references. Books on quality control can be boring, this is not one such book."
Les Watkinson, PhD, Clinical Biochemist Newsletter
