Melanoma is one of the most types of cancer. When melanoma is detected at an early stage, treatment is highly successful, but outcomes can be poor when the disease is advanced. There has been significant progress in our understanding of the molecular biology, genetics, and immunology of melanoma over the past decade. This has been accompanied by rapid advances in therapeutic strategies for patients with melanoma. This book provides the clinician and the researcher with a broad understanding of the molecular and cellular pathogenesis of melanoma, explores the clinical characteristics and criteria for clinical and pathological staging of the disease, and provides an overview of current and evolving treatment strategies in the adjuvant, metastatic, and preventive settings. The treatment of special populations and rare variants of melanoma that often present particular clinical challenges is also covered. Authored by international experts in melanoma biology and clinical management, this volume concisely explains how to diagnose, treat, and prevent melanoma while reviewing advances in basic science and providing an overview of innovative approaches still under development.

Losing the only home, that Elaina Morgan had ever known, left the young woman confused as to what to do next. Her only living relative, that she was aware of, was her father's brother who lived in Texas. Elaina had no way of contacting him. With only one week to vacate the property, she accepted the position of caring for nine year old, Nancy Farley. Although the girl was a challenge, her father was an even greater one. Bitter, since his wife had walked out and left him with a blind child, eight years ago, Chase Farley did not welcome Elaina into his home. His pa, Howard Farley, brought Elaina home, one day informing Chase that she had nowhere else to go and that Nancy needed a woman's guidance. Chase did not try to hide the fact that he had no use for women. With help from the Lord, Elaina soon shows him that not all women are like his wife.
