About this product

Product Information

Lung cancer is the commonest cause of death from cancer in the Western world and for a long time doctors have been pessimistic about its prognosis. Over the past three years, however, there have been important and exciting advances made in the understanding and treatment of lung cancer, and interest in the disease has grown considerably. Thorax asked five experts to write about some of these advances and published the articles in 1991. For New Perspectives in Lung Cancer these five articles have been extensively revised and a futher six chapters added, to produce a book covering all the latest advances in the disease. Subjects include: genetic changes, growth factors, including haematopoietic growth factors, new drugs, clinical trials - patient benefit and methods and results to date, avoiding unnecessary investigations and quality of life and tobacco.
