This is the best book - absolutely the best - on malignant hematopoietic disease. It is complete, concise, logical, and well-written. The pictures are beautiful, the references are succint and useful, and the paper is glossy and smells nice. Plus, it is co-authored by Dr. Brunning, under whom I was lucky enough to serve as hematopathology fellow. You won't find this one in medical bookstores; you have to order it through the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology. It's worth it.
This book covers bone marrow and lymph node based tumors - it's quite encyclopedic. It's a very good reference book, but unless you're completely obsessed, you won't be able to sit down and read it.
Gorgeous, stylish, classy book...beautiful pictures, very attractive layout, smartly written, nice fonts, smooth paper, funky book dimensions. For these reasons alone, this book is worth it. If you need more reasons: this book gives a more practical approach to bone marrow pathology than some of the traditional textbooks, and it includes non-neoplastic bone marrow pathology (which is surprisingly uncommon in the major hemepath texts!). Oh, and Dr. Foucar is really, really nice - and she's young and pretty and accomplished and a great role model for us aspiring pathologists. So buy her book.
More of a handbook than an exhaustive textbook, this book is a nice summary of the clinical and laboratory features of the main hematologic disorders. It includes lots of non-neoplastic hematologic disorders, and gives lists of appropriate diagnostic tests. And it's small and lightweight (hurray!).

Good for all areas of pathology. Notes and pictures.

Great for looking at slides in general and systemic pathology.
Okay, this isn't entirely related to hematopathology...but it still might be useful! This is a website for the pathology course at the U of M School of Dentistry in the cities. There are some nice summaries (if I do say so myself) of some problematic areas in pathology that might come in handy sometime.
