About this book

The study of Burkitt’s lymphoma is now in its 6 decade beginning with its discovery by Dr. Dennis Burkitt in equatorial Africa in the mid to late 1950’s. A large body of information is available which provides a current understanding of the underlying molecular changes that are linked to the initiation and development of Burkitt’s lymphoma. This proposed volume will provide a comprehensive view of Burkitt’s Lymphoma from the diagnosis to potential animal models for this disease and include a view from physicians who have a up close view of the patients in populations where the disease is rampant. We expect that this will be an excellent resource for Medical students and faculty as well as educated laypersons who have a person interest in the disease.
