Abstract

"The majority of cancer-related deaths are associated with nutritional problems. The major role that nutrition and diet play in the development and course of cancer had only been recently appreciated, and relatively little had been written on the topic in general. A critical component of nutrition and diet is eating behavior. Originally published in 1985, the purpose of this book was to meet the needs of both the clinician and the researcher by bringing together data and theory about nutrition and cancer from several disciplines, as considered from a biobehavioral perspective. The first chapter of the book provides an overview of the purposes and organization of the volume. The rest is divided into 3 parts. Part 1 focuses on basic research concerned with the nature and development of taste aversions and taste preferences in human and animals. Part 2 applies the basic processes reviews in the first part to the cancer area, focusing on eating and nutritional problems related to both tumor development and to learned processes that develop as a result of being exposed to radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatments. Part 3 focuses on identifying and evaluating intervention strategies for improving the nutritional status of people with cancer or at high risk for developing cancer. - Provided by publisher

Abstract

"This comprehensive book provides an overview of cancer therapeutics and covers different innovative treatment approaches for cancer. The initial chapter gives a detailed overview on cancer progression and disease diagnostics. The following chapters focus on different cancer treatment approaches, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy, immunotherapy, nutritional assessments, targeted therapy and Nano therapeutics. It also highlights the importance of cancer genomics, disease advancement, personalized medicine and psychological support for cancer patients. Emphasis is also given to the many challenges in the area of designing cancer treatment and designing clinical trials. The complete book also presents cancer management with different cancer treatment modalities, including pharmacogenomics and drug reactions. This is a unique and comprehensive piece of work that not only highlights the disease treatment modalities but also focuses on many challenges in the area of designing cancer treatment and even in designing clinical trials.

The contributing authors are experts in this field of cancer treatment. By familiarizing readers with the latest developments in this complex field, the book offers a valuable resource for clinicians. Researchers and medical students will also benefit from this comprehensive text." --publisher
