Cancer and Cancer Care

′An invaluable text for health professionals, researchers and policy makers. The editors have amassed an expert group of contributors and provide a truly holistic and multi-disciplinary view of cancer care′ - Phyllis Butow, Professor at the University of Sydney and Senior Principal Research Fellow, National Health and Medical Research Council, Australia

‘This book creates new ground for all health professionals working in cancer care to read, enjoy, look at and question their practice.’ Caroline Adcock, Clinical Practice Educator – Haematology and Oncology, Royal Shrewsbury Hospital 

Cancer and Cancer Care is a complete study of cancer, the care of people with the disease and its impact on everyday life. Addressing the physical and psychosocial aspects of the illness in detail, it covers all fundamental aspects of cancer diagnosis, treatment, survival and aspects of psychosocial support for all those affected by cancer: patients, their families, and their healthcare providers. 

Chapters include:

-         A review of the latest theory and evidence on over 30 separate topic areas

-         Reflective questions which challenge readers to reappraise what they have learned

-         Chapter overviews and chapter summaries which highlight the key points

The book is essential reading for all those on cancer care courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level. It will be valuable reading for nurses, oncologists, psychologists, social workers and all healthcare practitioners and researchers working with people affected by cancer.
