Atlas of Gynecologic Cytopathology
This generously illustrated, user-friendly atlas for both cytopathologists and surgical pathologists is a practical guide to the diagnostically challenging area of cervical cytopathology. Not only does the Atlas feature concise, expert descriptions of the full range of cytopathologies in the gynecological tract, it also presents and contrasts problematic pathologies that can potentially lead to erroneous interpretation. Over 500 carefully chosen, high-resolution color images illustrate crucial aspects of gynecologic tract disease, and selected images of the histopathologic and gross characteristics of the lesions enable morphologic correlation. Additionally, the book features a special chapter authored by a gynecological expert on the colposcopic characteristics of cervical lesions, along with a brief review of the updated ASCCP management guidelines emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach.
Principles and Practice of Gynecologic Oncology
Today, multidisciplinary approaches to treatment are at the heart of cancer care. They offer improved clinical outcomes, new possibilities in patient quality of life, and enable the development of true innovation in individualized treatment. To accurately reflect this modern day approach to cancer care, the content of the 6th edition of Principles and Practice of Gynecologic Oncology was written entirely by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and pathologists. New to the editorial team, Dr. Andrew Berchuck has made significant contributions to the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of ovarian and endometrial cancer in the book’s content. Every chapter of this book has been either completely rewritten or extensively updated to ensure that everyone involved in treating women with gynecologic cancer will have the most comprehensive and up-to-date information on the subject.
The Bright Continent
“For anyone who wants to understand how the African economy really works, The Bright Continent is a good place to start” (Reuters). Dayo Olopade knew from personal experience that Western news reports on conflict, disease, and poverty obscure the true story of modern Africa. And so she crossed sub-Saharan Africa to document how ordinary people deal with their daily challenges. She found what cable news ignores: a continent of ambitious reformers and young social entrepreneurs driven by kanju—creativity born of African difficulty. It’s a trait found in pioneers like Kenneth Nnebue, who turned cheap VHS tapes into the multimillion-dollar film industry Nollywood. Or Ushahidi, a technolo...
Enough
A passionate call to action to eliminate needless deaths from cervical cancer, by combatting healthcare inequities women face. Dr Eckert weaves together survivors' stories with her own expert, evidenced-based information. By breaking down cultural and political barriers, we can work together to eliminate the world's most preventable cancer.
A Practical Approach to Cervical Cancer Screening Techniques
A Practical Approach to Cervical Cancer Screening Techniques assists postgraduate trainees and practising gynaecologists in the prevention of cervical carcinoma by guiding them through screening methods for detecting pre-invasive lesions. This book is comprised of 17 chapters which emphasise the need for cervical screening to prevent invasive carcinoma, by diagnosing and treating women with high-grade cervical lesions. The major factors in the occurrence of cervical cancer, such as active metaplasia in the transformation zone, exposure to oncogen, and immune status of the individual are explained in detail. The criteria for a screening test and the various screening techniques available for ...

INTRODUCTION TO CANCER BIOLOGY AND GENETICS
Cancer, a global health crisis, is projected by WHO to cause 10 million deaths by 2020, with a mortality rate of one in six. This has spurred intensive research for innovative treatments. Cancer arises from genetic abnormalities triggering uncontrolled cell division, presenting distinct hallmarks. Both inherited and acquired mutations transform cell behavior, resulting in abnormal growth, reproduction, and death. Environmental toxins and spontaneous mutations contribute to genetic changes, while hereditary factors predispose some individuals. Despite rapid advancements in targeted treatments and immunotherapy, therapy resistance remains a formidable challenge due to the disease's heterogeneity. Understanding cancer biology is crucial for developing effective treatments. This book provides a comprehensive overview, covering basic cell biology, genetics, cancer development mechanisms, immune system involvement, diagnostic methods, treatment modalities, including emerging therapies, and challenges like drug resistance. Geared towards students and researchers in biology, medicine, and oncology, it offers vital insights into combating this complex disease.
Uterine Cancer
This authoritative reference compiles the latest studies on the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of uterine cancer and offers an extensive review of the molecular pathogenesis of endometrial and uterine disorders-analyzing patterns of disease presentation as population demographics change and considering the challenges this will place on future healthcare procedures.
