Treatment of Cancer
Thursday 9 October 2008
Professor Hardev Pandha and Dr Kate Relph from the University of Surrey provide information necessary for modern cancer management in the latest edition of Treatment of Cancer. Both have contributed an authoritative chapter on topics such as drug development, cancer prevention, and economics of cancer care.
Since the first edition was published in 1982, Treatment of Cancer has become a standard text for postgraduate physicians in the UK and beyond, providing all information necessary for modern cancer management in one comprehensive but accessible volume. By inviting experts from a number of disciplines to share their knowledge, the editors have succeeded in delivering a truly integrated approach to the care of the patient with cancer. This fifth edition adopts the successful structure of previous editions, whilst being thoroughly revised and updated, and with several completely new chapters, covering important topics such as the above, as well as treatments including radioimmunotherapy, biological therapies and antibody therapy.
Treatment of Cancer surpasses other oncology texts in condensing the essential information for exemplary cancer care into one readable and accessible guide, and will be an invaluable addition to the bookshelves of the busy oncologist in training or in practice.
