About this book
Reviews
“Cancer genetics is an established part of clinical medicine, and this development can be followed through the different editions of this classical textbook. … For the clinical specialist in genetics or any other specialty meeting cancer patients and their family members, or for the resident, this textbook is useful as a first source … . I will strongly recommend this book to those who meet patients who ask questions about the heritability of the cancer in their family … .” (U. Kristoffersson, European Journal of Human Genetics, 2015)
