About the Author:"Stephen Falk is a consultant clinical oncologist based in Bristol with sessional commitments to Yeovil. Major clinical interests are thoracic and gastro-intestinal malignancies. Interest in research was stimulated as a MRC Clinical Scientist in Norman Bleehens' unit in Cambridge where the MRC cancer trials unit was situated at the time. A MD related to lung cancer and scheduling of topoisomerase poisons with and without radiation is the basis of an on-going interest in chemo-radiation interactions. He is lead doctor for Clinical Oncology in Bristol and clinical lead for research and development within the Bristol Haematology and Oncology centre and for the National Cancer Research Network locally in Avon Somerset and Wiltshire. He is also a member of the NCRI upper GI studies committees.

Book Description:Lung cancer is the most common cancer affecting the industrialized world and affects the lives of thousands of people, including patients' friends and family, every year. The most common cause of lung cancer is long-term exposure to tobacco smoke. The occurrence of lung cancer in nonsmokers, who account for as many as 15% of cases, is often attributed to a combination of genetic factors, radon gas, asbestos, and air pollution, including secondhand smoke. The aim of this book is to give, in a clear and simple way, succinct information about all aspects of this type of cancer, with a stress on the practical side of its treatment. The book also details how care is likely to be organised and what patients can do to help themselves, both if they have the disease and also how to stop smoking. Fully updated for this third edition, the book includes information on getting the best treatment and living with cancer, both of which are new approaches to the disease in the UK.
Editorial Review:As a prospective undergraduate medical student with a strong interest in oncology, I found this resource incredibly informative. It has an abundance of information about the treatment of lung cancer, giving a patient (or anyone involved in their care) an accurate picture of what he/she can expect, thus slightly alleviating possible anxieties. It is also a very good quick reference resource for professionals-Macmillan Cancer Support Cancer Voices. This is a no-nonsense, practical, factual book on all aspects of lung cancer; it will be useful for anyone affected by cancer who is trying to understand what is happening and why. It is very clear and easy to understand; the authors use plain English, which would appeal to anyone with no medical knowledge-Macmillan Cancer Support Cancer Voices. I have reviewed quite a few books about lung cancer this is one of the best so far. Everything is explained really well for carers and it will help them to understand the mental strain on the patient. I like the honest content, the hope for the future and the explanation of the whole process, from symptoms, through diagnosis to treatment options. The introduction is excellent; it made me want to obtain more knowledge-Macmillan Cancer Support Cancer Voices ...a great resource for someone who is newly diagnosed with lung cancer and a great help for the practitioner. * Doody's Notes..this is a comprehensive book that I would recommend for patients, lay carers and professionals who wish to get information on lung cancer-Oncology News
