Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is a very good book indeed, with an excellent coverage of this all important subject. Very comprehensive regarding all types of cancer as well as aspects of the disease in general. Rating * * * *" Cambridge Medicine, Addenbrooke's Clinical School Gazette
"This is an excellent review in clinical oncology, and it is presented in a very readable format for those who are not oncology specialists."
Doody's
"As an introductory text, this book admirably fills a long-empty niche. The level of detail varies but, in most cases is more than adequate for students, postgraduate trainees or general physicians wanting some background information." Medical Journal of Australia
"...a comprehensive overview of the principles and practice of cancer management. It is an extremely readable book and it is easy to dip in to a chapter to refresh and update one's knowledge." Palliative Medicine
"This book is exactly what was needed. It is aimed at a wide audience - not only clinical oncologists but also physicians, gynaecologists, general practitioners and even medical students. The key to the book's success lies in a wealth of concise detail written with clarity, balance and common sense...All in all this book is destined to become a classic." The Lancet on previous edition
