Manual of Clinical Oncology (UICC International Union Against Cancer) - Softcover
The UICC "Manual of Clinical Oncology" has become a basic textbook for all students and practitioners. It gives concise, clear information on the concepts and underlying principles which govern optimal cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The manual focuses on basic aspects and does not go into details of therapy, which are ever changing and controversial. The fifth, fully revised edition has new chapters on carcinogenesis and prevention as well as many new tables and figures. The text is easy to understand and covers the basic and clinical biology of cancer in all its breadth.
