Introduction to the Cellular and Molecular Biology of Cancer
Editat de Margaret Knowles, Peter Selbyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 iul 2005
This new edition of Introduction to the Cellular and Molecular Biology of Cancer provides a comprehensive overview of cancer biology, covering the current status of both research and treatment. For the student or new researcher the breadth of cancer research can appear daunting, yet a broad understanding is essential for translation of laboratory findings into the clinic. Within the broad scope of the book, each topic is reviewed authoritatively by experts in the field, and the accompanying bibliographies allow rapid access to the relevant current literature. The book covers topics extending from the molecular alterations found in cancer cells and their causes to the current range of approaches to treatment. Since the publication of the previous edition in 1997 there has been unprecedented progress in cancer research: this is reflected by an extensive revision of all the material, and the addition of eight new chapters, covering DNA repair, epigenetic events, the cell cycle, cell immortalisation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, animal models, the genome, transcriptome and proteome, radiotherapy and molecular radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and gene therapy.The fourth edition of this popular book will serve as a text for both undergraduate and postgraduate use and also as an introduction for clinicians and scientists new to the field.

Recenzii
Review from previous edition This edition is highly recommended to students of cancer, whether they be medical or non-medical scientists, and will take its readers to the leading edge of cancer research ... admirable book.
Successive editions of this book have mirrored developments in cancer research and this new edition continues to provide a short but comprehensive introduction to the initiation, development and treatment of cancer.
The first two editions were good: now it is excellent ... everything is covered and relevant citations are given. Not only are important basic clinical and pathological issues covered, but so too are all the important areas of tumour biology and the molecular processes and genetics relevant to cancer ... I consider this an invaluable book ... I intend to advise all my new graduate students and post docs to buy, read, and study a copy ... masterfully edited and well-illustrated text. This book is great! If you are interested in cancer, buy a copy!
This is an excellent book ... As one who teaches cancer genetics among other things, I greatly welcome a source to which one can recommend students ... A fascinating read for everyone with an interest (morbid or not) in the subject.
This book will be much appreciated by newcomers to cancer biology and will provide a concise and thought-provoking review for experts in the field.
This is a superb introduction to cancer studies for clinicians and is difficult to fault ... this must be a bargain hard to beat. I strongly recommend this text for all involved in cancer studies and the care of patients with cancer.
