Handbook of Advanced Cancer Care Edited by Michael J Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-01043-6 — Handbook of Advanced Cancer Care Edited by Michael J. Fisch , Eduardo Bruera Frontmatter More Information Handbook of Advanced Cancer Care Patients with advanced cancer increasingly receive end-of-life care from a variety of nonspecialist physicians and nurses. These professionals need to be able to assess the original diagnosis and the appropriateness of patient referral, set a treatment or palliation program, and recognize and plan for the clinical problems associated with specific primary tumors. However, there is no comprehensive source of information available to them at a level between specialist oncology texts and nursing texts. Toremedy this, two eminent physicians from one of the world’s foremost cancer centers have drawn together a remarkable team to provide a handbook which covers the full range of problems nonspecialists will encounter. This highly accessible text covers general principles in oncology, the primary tumors one by one, and management of specific symptoms and syndromes. It will be invaluable to primary care physicians, surgeons, non-oncology subspecialists, nurses, therapists, and trainees. Dr Michael J. Fisch is Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.
