This concise overview of the fundamental concepts of cancer biology
is ideal for those with little or no background in the field. A
summary of global cancer patterns introduces students to the
general principles of how cancers arise and the risk factors
involved. By focusing on fundamental examples of the signalling
pathways within cells, the functional effects of DNA damage are
explained. Later chapters then build on this foundation to provide
a comprehensive summary of the major signalling pathways that
affect tumour development. Current therapeutic strategies are
reviewed, along with a discussion of methods for tumour detection
and biomarker identification. Finally, the impact of whole genome
sequencing is discussed, bringing students up to date with key
recent developments in the field. From basic principles to insights
into cutting-edge research, this book will enable the reader to
move into the cancer field with confidence.
