The fundamental primciple behind this treatment guide is the importance of a truly integrated, multidisciplinary approach to the management of the patient with cancer. Accordingly, the discussion of each disease site combines the perspectives of medical oncology, surgical oncology, and radiation oncology, as appropriate. This sixth edition of this easy-to-use handbook features the efforts of 121 contributors from 60 different institutions. In this edition, several revisions have been made. For instance, the chronic leukemias chapter has been divided into two separate chapters, one on CML and one on CLL. To make this edition even easier to use than previous editions, the specifics of various chemotherapy regimens have been placed within each appropriate chapter, rather than grouping them in an appendix. Biological therapies also have been included in appropriate chapters, rather than as a separate chapter. This reorganization will save the reader time in accessing a particuar chemotherapy regimen or appropriate biological treatment. This volume is ideal for both cancer professionals and the general medical community, and for patients who want to know what their doctors are reading.
