Blood Fractions Guide

If the intended audience is people working in bloodless medicine, then the guide is fine as it is. It is an excellent reference. If the intended audience is lay people, then some terms need to be defined, such as "bovine," "coagulopathy," and "topical agent." I don't even know if "coagulopathy" is included in non-medical dictionaries, but having to read anything with dictionary in hand can be a pain.
