“The editorsâ€{u8876}e done an outstanding job of presentingâ€{u3BED}plex information in a lucid manner â€{u0D28}is book is a must-read for the global community of aspiring students and neuro-oncology practitioners.â€{u2802}{u006D}ar Gajjar, MD in the Foreword This is a succinct introduction to pediatric neuro-oncology.Â{u0274} summarizes the key advances in molecular biology that have helped transform this rapidly evolving field and provides up-to-date coverage of major and emerging treatment modalities as well as supportive care.Â{u04E5}parate chapters present each kind of pediatric brain cancer and its diagnosis and treatment.Â{u2820} As more children survive brain cancer, the importance of quality of life issues and helping survivors to cope with the neuropsychological impact and long-term effects of current therapies has come into sharper focus; these topics are also addressed in the book, as are palliative care and pediatric neuro-oncology in countries with limited resources.The book is aimed at trainees and practitioners who seek an up-to-date text in pediatric neuro-oncology that is both comprehensive and concise.Â{uE000}
