SynopsisThis much anticipated Third Edition provides a comprehensive presentation of the global burden and patterns of cancer occurrence, along with new developments in our understanding of cancer causation and prevention. Special attention is given to epidemiologic approaches that incorporate molecular biomarkers based on genomic and other emerging technologies, providing new insights into the role of genetic predisposition and gene-environment interactions in cancerinduction. In addition, new chapters are included on social class disparities in cancer incidence and mortality, the role of obesity and physical inactivity in cancer etiology, the potential effects ofelectromagnetic fields and rediofrequency radiation, and the principles of cancer chemoprevention.The textbook is organized into five sections: Basic Concepts; The Magnitude of Cancer; The Causes of Cancer; Cancer by Tissue of Origin; Cancer Prevention and Control. In this new edition, Drs. David Schottenfeld and Joseph F. Fraumeni, Jr. have enlisted three distinguished Associate Editors: Drs. Jonathan Samet of Johns Hopkins University, Graham Colditz of Harvard University and AliceWhittemore of Stanford University., This volume provides the most authoritative account of cancer causes, incidence, morality, and survival patterns currently available. It includes new chapters on molecular biomarkers, genetic modifiers of environmental risks, social class disparities in incidence and mortality, obesity, physical activity, chemoprevention, electromagnetic fields and radiofrequency radiation. The five sections include 1) Basic Concepts 2) The Magnitude of Cancer 3) The Causes of Cancer 4) Cancer by Tissue of Origin, and 5) Cancer Prevention and Control., This much anticipated Third Edition provides a comprehensive presentation of the global burden and patterns of cancer occurrence, along with new developments in our understanding of cancer causation and prevention.
