Description
Oncology: An Introduction for Nurses and Healthcare Professionals by David O'Halloran provides a comprehensive overview of cancer biology and treatment for healthcare professionals. The book bridges the gap between normal anatomy and what happens when cancer develops, making it accessible to those without an oncology or medical background.
Written in an easy-to-understand style, the book takes a logical and graded approach to information, explaining complex concepts and terminology in a way that's relatable for both experienced and junior nurses. It also includes self-assessment exercises to help test learning and understanding.
This book is invaluable for helping healthcare professionals explain conditions and treatment to patients and families, and is suitable for those new to oncology or looking to refresh their knowledge of cancer biology and treatment.
