Cancer in developing countries

More about the book

KurzbeschreibungThis book does not attempt to cover all aspects of cancer in developing countries, this would require many volumes. Instead, it consists of a series of essays or „flashes“, each of which illustrates an aspect of cancer in developing countries seen from the author`s perspective. Some of these flashes illuminate a very specific and limited issue, while others address more general problems. One hopes that some, at least, will lead to flashes of insight, not only into the problems discussed, but into other, similar problems that permeate cancer in developing countries. And if the book succeeds in stimulating some of its readers to want to know more, or to contribute in some way to improving cancer control in countries with limited resources, then it will have made a valuable contribution.
