Handbook of Advanced Cancer Care
Patients with advanced cancer increasingly receive end-of-life care from a variety of health care professionals, physicians and nurses. These professionals need to be able to assess the original diagnosis and the appropriateness of patient referral, set a treatment or palliation program, and recognise and plan for the clinical problems associated with specific primary tumors. This is the first comprehensive source of information available at a level between specialist oncology texts and nursing texts. Two eminent physicians from one of the world's foremost cancer centers have drawn together a remarkable team to provide a handbook which covers the full range of problems the healthcare workforce caring for these patients will encounter. This highly accessible text covers general principles in oncology, the primary tumors one by one, and management of specific symptoms and syndromes. It will be invaluable to primary care physicians, surgeons, nurses, therapists and trainees.

God, Why Are You Being So Cruel?
I always thought it was better to be positive and optimistic rather than be down and pessimistic because that was what Nick was like. He never saw the downside of things, and whatever he had, the most important thing was that he had to be positive and fight it-and as a family, we had to do the same for him. Nick Hobin was only thirty-two years old when he was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. Beloved by his family and friends, the life and soul of any party, he was the kind of person who would instantly light up any room he walked into.

Tumors of the Chest
The purpose of this textbook is to meticulously depict all aspects of chest tumors in a comprehensive volume format that encompasses their biology, clinical presentation and management.

Chapters of specific interest have also been included to cover such wide-ranging topics as management of the elderly and chemoprevention, along with ethical, social and financial issues associated with such tumors. All participating authors, selected from an international panel of highly regarded scientists currently pioneering lung cancer research, are major contributors in the area of expertise they have been chosen to present.
Melanoma
Melanoma is the most life threatening form of skin cancer, the incidence of which has been rising in the developing world due to its link with sun exposure. The increase in incidence had made it imperative that clinicians managing these patients keep up-to-date with the latest advances, allowing them to provide optimal treatment. As with the other Challenges books, Challenges in Melanoma assumes a certain level of knowledge and builds on this by discussing only areas of controversy and uncertainty in the basic science and clinical management of the disease. Authors aim to provide a balanced answer based on the scientific evidence, but ultimately draw some conclusions that will be of relevance to clinical practice. The content is organised into three sections: aetiology; diagnosis, screening and prevention; and management. All the chapters ask practical and pertinent questions. The book takes a global view of melanoma as a public health risk as well as looking at management issues.
