Sommario/riassunto

Algernon Brickwood has a son, Teddy, who has been sent down from Oxford and also broken off his engagement to Abigail. Algernon can live without the Oxford connection, but certainly not the family?s impending union with the lovely, and rather rich, Abigail. This is an uproarious romp through love, money and a taste for high living.

Sommario/riassunto

This book reviews the significant advances in our understanding of glioma biology that have been achieved during the past decade and describes in detail the resultant new approaches to treatment. Improvements in surgical techniques, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy are comprehensively covered, with discussion of their impact in decreasing patient morbidity and increasing survival. In addition, individual chapters are devoted specifically to current treatment for low-grade gliomas, anaplastic gliomas, and glioblastoma multiforme. Other topics addressed include treatment of the elderly patient,  investigating emerging therapies from small molecules to immunotherapy and palliative care. This timely book will be a valuable source of up-to-date information for practitioners and will also be of interest to researchers.
