About this product
Product Information
A distinguished panel of world authorities reviews the current state of today's understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of pancreatic cancer. Their cutting-edge reviews discuss both medical and surgical modalities and include numerous insights into the basic molecular processes underlying the disease. Among the key topics covered are the prospects for early diagnosis using molecular techniques, the latest diagnostic and therapeutic methods, the role of laparoscopy (diagnostic and therapeutic), and nonsurgical treatment. The reviewers also address the future possibilities for clinical advances, quality of life concerns, and the value of the Japanese "extended Whipple resection." Pancreatic Cancer will become the new standard reference for all clinicians who diagnose and treat this disease, as well as for basic scientists needing a summary of the many recent advances. i

". . .a fascinating body of information regarding pancreatic cancer. . .The chapters related to palliative treatment are quite good. . .Overall, this is a very nicely constructed book with the most current information available about pancreatic cancer. The sections discussing diagnosis, particularly molecular diagnosis, are well done. The sections on the operative treatments are considered in great deal and will be of great interest to those who regularly carry out operative treatment with a curative intent for patients with pancreatic carcinoma."-New England Journal of Medicine"Reber has entitled several renowned experts to contribute to this landmark text that captures and distills "the current state of both the art and the science in the field of pancreatic cancer" (as Reber states in the preface)....Finally, unlike many textbooks on the subject cancer, the book finishes with a discussion regarding quality of life, which, after all, is the most important factor regarding many with the misfortune of developing pancreatic cancer....this book is highly recommended. It will appeal to a broad spectrum of physicians and trainees who seek an overview of the current science and practice in the management of pancreatic cancer and an exciting glimpse into its future."-Gastrointestinal Endoscopy". . .contitutes the most complete review of ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas available. . .an excellent contribution to the surgical literature that addresses the major concepts any surgeon or physician with a particular interest in pancreatic cancer should know."-Archives of Surgery"Howard Reber produced this book 'in an effort to reflect the current state of both the art and science in the field of pancreatic cancer.' High marks for effort; strongly recommended for all who consider themselves to be engaged seriously in the field."-International Journal of Pancreatology"Overall this book is well-written and thus suitable for neophytes as well as specialists.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
