Now in its third edition, this comprehensive but concise textbook covering all aspects of modern cancer treatment has firmly become established as a favourite with junior doctors, medical students and other health care professionals.

Revue de presse

The book is well-written... I would recommend this book as the authoritative primer in clinical oncology which sets out the scientific basis and rationale for clinical practice in the United Kingdom and it would  provide Clinical Oncology trainees with a sound basis for future studies.
