Tamoxifen has persisted as a widely accepted and administered drug for almost 25 years. Following the many scientific papers and books on the subject, it has remained a very intriguing substance. This, perhaps, is the reason for another monograph on Tamoxifen. It is regrettably true that overviews, even when up to date after exhaustive research - the shibboleth of our cultures -, rapidly lose relevance with the passage of time. Scientists can sometimes be pictured as deep sea divers, who plunge into the unknown in search of a hitherto unknown world.

One can rationalize that the forces driving our concern with multi...
This critical, state-of-the-art review brings together the scattered and often controversial information on multidrug resistance reversal. Leading scientists in the field cover P-glycoprotein, the genetics of resistance, and its reversal by drugs. Resistance modifiers and modulators are tabulated and critically evaluated. Reversal of Multidrug Resistance in Cancer is important reading for oncologists, cancer chemotherapists, and other cancer researchers.
