Recenzje

"This book is a unique combination of information about pediatric malignancies and cutaneous reactions encountered from drugs, biological agents, and radiation therapies used to treat these tumors. ... The authors provide an excellent overview of what one can typically expect in skin reactions from cancer therapies, the course of presentation, permanent changes, pathophysiology, and treatment limitations. Because this is such a specialized field, this is probably the most helpful resource that ties all these aspects together." (Patricia Wong, Doody's Book Reviews, December 21, 2018)
