This textbook examines the depth of late-1990s practices and advances in the nursing of a child with cancer. Divided into four sections, the book addresses four modalities of treatment: chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and bone-marrow transplant. Each of the four sections looks at specific areas including symptom management, complications and late effects. Throughout, the book information boxes give useful guidance in good practice in this developing specialism.

Originally emanating from presentations at an international conference, this text brings together research and practice development from three perspectives: practice, management and education. Within these three sections, the book presents a series of chapters written mainly by practitioners, but some in collaboration with academics.

Much has changed since the first book Paediatric Oncology: Acute Nursing Care (1999), therefore, this new edition encompasses these changes in relation to the practice itself and the evidence that underpins it. Emphasis is placed on ensuring terminology is accurate, in keeping with the language of the current day.

The book is divided into six sections: Chemotherapy, Haematopoetic Stem Cell Transplantation, General Surgery, Radiotherapy, Late Effects of cancer therapies, and Palliative Care. There is a brief commentary at the end of each section/chapter by a 'novice' author but...
