Doody's Core Titles® 2020 Essential Purchase"This is the third edition of a now-standard reference on a highly specialized subject. The author has thoroughly updated the material and, by adding new topics relevant to the changes in oncologic management and some specific techniques, has produced a book that amply justifies replacing the previous edition. It will be of value to specialists and trainees alike." --Carol Scott-Conner, MD, PhD, MBA (University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics) Doody's Review Score: 91-4 Stars!
