Reviews

There is probably no area in which it is more important for the medical oncology and palliative care teams to work closely together than in the management of women with advanced breast cancer, which makes this latest addition to OUP's Palliative Care Consultations series most welcome...It will provide an excellent introduction to the management of women with advanced breast cancer and should be available wherever they are cared for. Roger Woodruff, Director of Palliative Care, Austin Health, Melbourne, Australia This book gives a comprehensive evidence-based account of different problems encountered in advanced breast cancer and will be useful for all the members of the breast cancer multidisciplinary team, more particularly medical staff and breast care clinical nurse specialists.
