From the reviews: "The second volume is dedicated to miscelaneous modifiable factors in cancer epidemiology. ... In conclusion it is necessary ... for clinicians, epidemiologists and laboratory workers, studying molecular biology in acquisition of knowledges which could broaden their scientific outlook and enlarge the orientation of their study in future years."
