Description

The definitive, most comprehensive text on pediatric oncology is now in its thoroughly updated Fifth Edition. A multidisciplinary group of the world's foremost specialists presents state-of-the-art information and guidelines on every aspect of pediatric cancer—from molecular biology and genetics to diagnosis, multimodal therapy, follow-up, and supportive care. This edition has new chapters on pathology and molecular diagnosis of leukemias and lymphomas, cellular and gene therapies, regulating patient safety in cancer treatment, non-rhabdo soft tissue sarcomas of childhood, and communicating with patients and families. Many of the previous edition's chapters have been rewritten by new contributors. Also included are up-to-date listings of resources for patients, families, and physicians.
