"Cancer is the second leading cause of death for children in the Western world. Rates of remission, survival, and cure of childhood malignancy may well represent the best measurements of the sophistication and efficiency of medical services provided to children in particular societies. In Challenges and Opportunities in Pediatric Oncology Frederick F. Holmes and his co-authors provide information that will help close the gap between basic and clinical sciences in pediatric oncology and between countries with the most advanced treatment and those striving to join them. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the authors discuss all aspects of childhood malignancy, from basic research to clinical trials to supportive care, as well as relating the day-to-day practice of those who care for children with cancer."--JHU Press
