內容簡介

This three-volume set is an authoritative reference source for the field of cancer research and all associated fields. It contains 163 articles exploring the causes, potential cures, and preventative measures of cancer. The encyclopedia also covers all the "hot" topics in cancer research, and should be beneficial to undergraduates, graduates as well as professionals and the general reader interested in cancer research.;Topics covered include: biology of cancer; invasion and spread of cancer; oncogenes; tumour suppressor genes; gene therapy; viral carcinogenesis; and drug resistance.
