"Clinical Endocrine Oncology fills a large void in the
medical literature, since it is especially targeted to the
treatment of patients with malignant endocrine tumors. . . . I
recommend this book for physicians who see, diagnose, and treat
patients with endocrine tumors. It provides a broad, strong base of
knowledge and a good foundation for further investigation of the
treatment options for these tumors."
