Includes bibliographical references and index.

From the rear cover

While intended primarily for non-majors, this forward looking cancer biology book will appeal to a wide ranging audience. Introductory chapters that provide the molecular, cellular, and genetic information needed to comprehend the material of the subsequent chapters will bring unprepared students up to speed for the rest of the book and will serve as a useful refresher for those with previous biology background. The second set of chapters will focus on the main cancers in terms of risk factors, diagnostic and treatment methods and relevant current research. The final section will encompass the immune system's role in the prevention and development of cancer and the impact that the Human Genome Project will have on future approaches to cancer care. The text is strategically inclusive of pedagogical features that will assist students in both study and comprehension while illustrating real life application of the concepts.

About the author

Sheila Barry and Craig Almeida have taught the cancer biology course at Stonehill College to both majors and non-majors for several years. Discouraged by the lack of accessible and current texts, they decided to write their own.
