The fifth edition reviews all significant recent clinical trials--including, for the first time, significant European clinical trials--and provides increased coverage of international and Third World issues.

New chapters cover psychosocial aspects of radiotherapy for the child and family and medical management of pain, nausea, nutritional problems, and blood count depression in the child with cancer"--Provided by publisher. |
