' ... it offers excellent and up-to-date information for those who provide systemic treatment of cancer and others working in the field of oncology.' - New England Journal of Medicine (of the 2nd Edition)
Effective care of the cancer patient increasingly involves systemic treatment, and as the range of available therapeutic agents continues to expand, the oncologist must be fully aware of the rationale for choosing specific drugs and combinations. As a key source of reference, this third edition includes expanded material on targeted therapies and new chapters covering genetic screening and psycho-oncology and communication, keeping the medical oncologist at the forefront of cancer medicine.
