Description
This helpful book has received high praise as being one of those books that will not “gather dust on a bookshelf”. It is a unique resource for busy radiation oncologists. First, it is a comprehensive text that includes reviews of the basic sciences underlying the field of radiation oncology. It also offers important overviews of the current state of knowledge for all common cancers managed by radiation oncologists. It supplies concise overviews of modern radiation treatment techniques. Finally, it describes palliative care and symptom management. Another attractive feature about this book is its ease of use. Information is laid out for efficient utilization, with bulleted key points and effective tabulation of relevant data. The annotated bibliography not only lists the most relevant current literature, but also provides the reader a capsule summary of the most important results and clinical relevancy of these studies. The efficient presentation of such material will no doubt be very useful for busy radiation oncologists.
