Reviews

"This is an excellent reference for those early in their oncology careers or who would benefit from a contemporary review of a specific subject. The authors have met this goal, and I am confident that a seventh edition will be forthcoming." (Int. J. Radiation Oncology Biol. Phys., November 2010)

"The book is perfectly suited to its intended target audience i.e. individuals that need a general introduction to the treatment of cancer. Indeed, it represents a cheaper and faster reading than volumes specifically written for oncologists although the latter might still enjoy reading the more general chapters." (Hematological Oncology, July 2010)
