Rezensionen

From the book reviews:

"This is an important reference for practicing medical oncologists, urologists, and researchers interested in the biology and therapy of this disease. ... This book details the most recent research into the molecular targets of RCC and applications for clinical drug development. ... It should be part of libraries for clinicians or basic scientists dealing with RCC. It certainly is an excellent reference for basic and translational scientists and clinicians in this field." (Jianqing Lin, Doody's Book Reviews, February, 2015)
