This article has no abstract so we have provided the first paragraph of the full text.
Hematology-Oncology Therapy is a well-organized text book that covers almost 500 treatment regimens for many malignant diseases in a stringent, concise, and logical way. For each disease, epidemiology, pathology, work-up, staging, survival, caveats and distinct regimens are discussed and original citations provided. At almost 900 pages, Hematology-Oncology Therapy gives an overview of numerous chemotherapy regimens in hematology-oncology and also includes a chapter on supportive therapy that is provided in a script-like form. Most authors are affiliated at the NIH, and accordingly the selection of regimens included follow the local recommendations, although an effort is made to include the most frequently applied schemata.
