As a Clinical Oncology Resident, I needed a practical guide to review toxicities expected, forms of administration and basic properties of chemotherapeutic drugs. That’s exactly what I found in this book.This is not an exhaustive monograph text, and basic aspects(cell cycle, theories of CT, etc) are only summarized. But for the clinician, and for all those who need a quick reference when working at a Day Hospital, this is the right book.
