Advances in research and the treatment of cancer mean that more
patients and their carers are asking healthcare professionals about
the latest treatments and how they may be of benefit. It is
essential that staff working with cancer patients understand fully
how these new treatments work in order to disseminate timely and
appropriate information to patients.
The application of biology to the delivery of cancer care is
playing an ever-increasing role in the management of these
diseases. The Biology of Cancer: Second Edition provides
details of the most recent developments in cancer care and is
divided into three sections:
* Understanding Cancer - examines predisposing factors to
developing cancer, diagnosis and its implications on the individual
and society.
* The Science of Cancer - a closer look at the cell,
genetics, the immune system, tumour markers and monoclonal
antibodies.
* Research and Treatment - exploring translational
oncology, applying research methodology to cancer research and
research ethics relating to cancer.
This fully updated edition also looks at evidence-based research
that can be translated directly to patient care and gives details
recent developments. Written by experienced, practicing healthcare
professionals, The Biology of Cancer: Second Edition can
easily be applied to patient care. It is an informative text for
students, newly qualified nurses and practising oncology/palliative
care nurses.
