Reviews

This book describes the multidisciplinary treatment of osteosarcoma as practiced in Japan. ... This will most likely be of value to trainees in oncology -- medical, radiation, and surgical -- as well as practitioners in the field. ... This is a worthwhile contribution. It is a niche monograph that will be of interest to those in the field who want an update on the techniques and approaches used in Japan. (Carol Scott-Conner, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2016)
