"From the reviews: ""...takes the reader on a fascinating scientific journey that illustrates how the combination of clinical and basic investigations has realized the first two objectives for both of these prevalent malignancies and, with breast cancer, the promise of being close to prevention."" -Foreword by Prof. Elwood Jensen, Professor Emeritus, University of Chicago ""This was a well-written and well-thought-out book on extensive and changing subject matter...the chapter on nonsteroidal antiandrogens is one of the best chapters I've read on the subject. It was very well written and covered the subject thoroughly."" -The Annals of Pharmacotherapy ""Hormone Therapy in Breast and Prostate Cancer offers an authoritative state-of-the-art account of the role of hormones in prostate and breast cancer...all of the chapters are extremely useful to both researchers and clinicians. "" -Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism ""I highly recommend this volume for all oncologists who treat these patients and for the laboratory investigators who would like to see how their work is translated to the clinic."" -Oncology ""...this is an excellent contemporary review of this field. It will be of interest, in particular, to obviously breast surgeons or urologists with an interest in malignancy and, in particular, those involved in clinical trials."" -ANZ J.
