Handbook of Advanced Cancer CareMichael J. Fisch, Eduardo Bruera Cambridge University Press, 27 mar 2003 - 510 Patients with advanced cancer increasingly receive end-of-life care from a variety of non-specialist physicians and nurses. However, there is no comprehensive source of information available to these professionals at a level between specialist oncology texts and nursing texts. To remedy 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 non-specialists will encounter, covering general principles in oncology, the primary tumors, and management of specific symptoms and syndromes. |
