Abstract
Hemopoietic and lymphoid cell physiology has been progressing very rapidly, particularly since the results of the first bone marrow transplantation experiments (see [7]), thymectomy experiments [12], and bone marrow [1, 15, 16] and lymphocyte in vitro culture [13] became available. However, morphology has not kept pace with these other disciplines and has not shown any significant progress recently. Since MCCULLOGH, one of the greatest living hematologists, has declared: “Hematology must do without the microscope”, one is reluctant to propose a new morphological classification or subclassification of a “well-established” group of diseases.
