Summary: Excellent! Concise and comprehensive.
Review: This paperback book is an excellent reference for physicians, medical students, nurses, medical librarians, pharmacists who want a concise, comprehensive oncology reference. Chapters cover the basics principles of chemotherapy, radiology, surgery, and cancer diagnosis. Other chapters cover related- issues such as pain control and late effects. Chapters covering each type of cancer include information on the epidemiology/etiology, detection/diagnosis, classification, treatment and prognosis. The only shortcoming is that the book is somewhat outdated. One can only hope that a new edition is in the works! Sally Lopez, RN, Medical Information Specialist slopez@erols.com

Summary: Excellent source book for basic information about cancer
Review: While I have used this book for several years as a source book to understand specific kinds of cancer I only regret that there has not as yet been an updated version. Not only have there been new chemotherapeutic agents in use, there are also many new diagnostic tools. In the field of medicine six or seven years is an eternity, especially for cancer and related conditions.
