About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"The chapters of this book, written by outstanding scientists in the field of cancer pharmacogenomics, clearly show how DNA information from both the host and the tumor should be taken into account for rational selection of drug therapies in cancer patients. … the book provides a comprehensive and in-depth view of the field of cancer pharmacogenomics. The book is informative for clinicians, for people involved in development of cancer therapeutics on industrial level, and any scientists who are interested in cancer biology." (C. Altaner, Neoplasma, June, 2009)
